The Lost Mine benefits from an exotic cast of Chinese mobsters and businessmen, and is also enriched by a funny line about playing Monopoly (Poirot vs. Hastings) and a humorously contrived chase (I was quite amused by the sort of "prehistoric" tracking system from the 1930s). It's definitely one of those less traditional stories about a mustachioed Belgian.

Again, something a bit exotic. A little bit of Asia this time. It's nice how Poirot manages to get essentially everywhere, even without leaving his place. What's good about this episode is how it's connected with the game of Monopoly, which Hastings and Poirot enjoy playing together. The reveal of the killer is again very effective, mainly due to the interesting setting.
