About this quiz
Each title has a different number of words, from two to six, so every row names one place only. The titles are on Ribbia's checked list of agatha christie's hercule poirot novels.
- Tiles are in capitals, so a capital letter never gives away the first word of a title.
- A word that appears twice has two tiles, and either one may take either place.
- A check marks every row at once. Right rows lock in green and the rest can be moved again.
- You have three checks.
