In this exclusive authorized edition from the Queen of Mystery,
Hercule Poirot is called on to investigate the murder of a brother and
sister - now available with a foreword by Sophie Hannah.
"He was murdered, wasn't he?"
When Cora Lansquenet is savagely murdered, the extraordinary remark she
had made the previous day at her brother Richard's funeral suddenly
takes on a chilling significance. At the reading of Richard's will, Cora
was clearly heard to say, "It's been hushed up very nicely, hasn't it.
But he was murdered, wasn't he?"
Did Cora's accusation a dark truth that sealed her own fate? Or are the
siblings' deaths just tragic coincidences?
Desperate to know the truth, the Lansquenet's solicitor turns to Hercule
Poirot to unravel the mystery. For even after the funeral, death isn't
finished yet . . .
