James Clavell’s epic novel of Japan picks up twenty years after Tai-Pan and two and a half centuries after Shōgun. In 1862, Japan is in chaos. As the Shōgun’s power wanes, rival Samurai factions fight to restore the Emperor. Into this maelstrom come the gai-jin—hated, arrogant foreigners watching from Yokohama, ready to profit by selling weapons to all sides. But the foreign traders are divided by national rivalries. At their head stands Malcolm Struan, heir to the Noble House, facing off against Lord Yoshi, a direct descendant of Toranaga.

When Hercule Poirot discovered the truth of the Dog’s Ball incident, he became convinced that Emily Arundell did not die from natural causes. Who, then, was responsible for the death of this rich spinster? Could it be the slightly wanton Theresa, her spendthrift brother Charles, the seemingly meek companion Wilhelmina Lawson, Bella Tanios (married to a Greek doctor her aunt distrusted), or those irritating Tripps with their infernal séances? Unlike Poirot, the murderer forgot the tongue of the Dumb Witness.

Condition Description

A terrifying sequence of near-misses builds a chilling pattern around an unsuspecting victim. First, a heavy picture falls directly across her bed. Next, a massive boulder thunders past her along a narrow cliff path, followed closely by a terrifying brake failure on a steep hill. When a bullet misses her head by a mere matter of inches, it becomes clear that these are no mere mishaps. However, the calculating would-be murderer makes a fatal error in judgment by executing their latest attack within a dozen yards of the brilliant detective Hercule Poirot.

Pink Poison...

The beautiful, flamboyant woman picked up the pink gin and drained it. A moment later someone said sharply, "What's the matter?" and stared at the woman, now leaning back in her chair. Her lips were blue, her hand had gone to her heart. She fought for breath and gasped: "I feel - rather strange..."

Someone cried, "Get a doctor... hurry!" But five minutes later the women was dead.

That prince of deduction, Hercule Poirot, solves The Murder in the Mews and two other perplexing cases, Dead Man's Mirror and The Incredible Theft, with his usual dazzling brilliance.

Death in Fancy Dress...

The girl dressed as the Queen of Hearts sat in the corner leaning up against the wall in a queer huddled position. Her eyes regarded them steadily through her mask, but she did not move. Her dress was carried out in a bold design of red and white, but on the left hand side the pattern seemed to have got mixed. There was more red than there should have been...
