Hastings has been summoned to a guest house by Poirot, the site of a murder he solved when he first came to Britain. But it’s many years on, Poirot is old, frail, wheelchair-bound, it’s a sad sight.
Poirot has on his mind 5 unconnected deaths he’s been looking into that all seem explainable and dealt with – but he’s spotted a person, X, who for no good reason, links all 5 deaths together…. and is one of the people currently staying in the guest house. He won’t tell Hastings who, but wants him to be his eyes and ears as he expects X to strike again.
I thought I had it sussed, but turned out to be miles off, which is the sign of a good book, surely! It kept me gripped and I read it in a week!
