The best-loved detective novels of all time.
The most famous detective in the world.
The most interesting literary event of the year.
Hercule Poirot's new novel - a new murder mystery that can only be solved by the little gray cells of the famous Belgian detective.
Since her first book was published in 1920, Agatha Christie has written thirty-three novels, two plays and more than fifty stories starring Hercule Poirot. Now the guardians of her legacy have allowed a new novel featuring Agatha's favorite hero to appear for the first time.
Poirot's peaceful dinner in a London cafe is interrupted by a young woman who confides in him that she will soon be killed. However, very frightened, she begs Poirot not to look for the killer and bring him to justice - because justice will be served when she is dead.
A little later that same evening, Poirot learns that three guests have been murdered in an elegant London hotel, each with a cufflink placed in their mouth. Is it possible that these murders are somehow connected to the frightened woman? While Poirot tries to put together the unusual pieces of the puzzle, the killer prepares a hotel room for the fourth victim...
Guided by the hand of Sophie Hanna, the author of world bestsellers, Poirot dives into a mysterious event in London in the twenties. The devilishly clever puzzle could have been solved by none other than a gifted Belgian detective and his unbeatable little gray cells.
