A very interesting collection, and well worth reading if you've not read any of Christie's supernatural stories.
Checking my notes, I find I read this back in June 2011. I found it a confusing mixture of supernatural and mystery. It's as if in Scooby Doo you had no idea whether the ghost they were hunting would turn out to be a man in a mask or an actual ghost. It rather spoiled the fun for me.
