Genesis

Robert Hunter is called to the most vicious crime scene he has ever attended. It is made even more disturbing when the autopsy reveals a poem, left by the killer, inside the body of their victim. Soon, another body is found. The methods and signature of the murder differs, but the level of violence used suggests that the same person is behind both crimes. Hunter’s fears are confirmed when a second part of the poem is found. But this discovery does more than just link the two killings – it suggests that this is the work of a serial murderer.

Dumb Witness

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.

Murder In The Mews

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.
