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.
