The world’s greatest detective, Hercule Poirot—legendary star of Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the Nile—returns to solve a fiendish new mystery.

Hercule Poirot is travelling by luxury passenger coach from London to the exclusive Kingfisher Hill estate, where Richard Devonport has summoned him to prove that his fiancée, Helen, is innocent of the murder of his brother, Frank. But there is a strange condition attached to this request: Poirot must conceal his true reason for being there. The coach is forced to stop when a distressed woman demands to get off, insisting that if she stays in her seat, she will be murdered. Although the rest of the journey passes without anyone being harmed, Poirot’s curiosity is aroused, and his fears are later confirmed when a body is discovered with a macabre note attached…

Could this new murder and the peculiar incident on the coach be clues to solving the mystery of who killed Frank Devonport? And if Helen is innocent, can Poirot find the true culprit in time to save her from the gallows?

Quite good, except for a strange commentary on assisted suicide. Its understandable from the time its supposed to be set.Read by one of the best audiobook readers for Poirot books.

Although a completely unbelievable resolution, this one is the best of Ms Hannah''s 4 Poirot books. Monogram was puzzling, close casket was appalling and a bad word play, three quarters was okayish and better than the previous 2, this one has a great set up, very Dame Christie-ish appeal to coincidences and an unpredictable resolution. If considered along with Christie's Poirot, the book is 3 out of 5 but standalone or Ms , Hannah''s Poirot it's 5 out of 5. Good job!

För snurrig och inte rätt känsla

Sophie Hannah har igen lyckats skriva en bra Poirot deckare som känns precis som flera av Agatha Christies egna böcker.

I love Agatha Christie (and also other interpretations of Sophie) but this one was unfortunately not good.

Nok en spennende og uforutsigbar Poirot-bok av Sophie Hannah, og i likhet med Closed Casket bedre skrevet enn av salige Agatha herself. Ikke noe mysterium at Agatha Christie-organisasjonen har godkjent henne som viderefører av tradisjonen. Hun forbedrer den sågar.
