In this intricate mystery first published in 1937, Poirot receives a letter — two months after it was written — from rich spinster Emily Arundell about a possible attempt on her life. Suspicious, Poirot heads for her hometown of Market Basing to find her already dead. A now cold trail of clues leads Poirot through a colorful cast of characters and one of Christie’s typically cozy villages as he attempts to solve a murder that confounds even his superior skills. Narrator: Hugh Fraser
