Poirot. When the family matriarch overseeing the beautiful mansion
Styles Court is found poisoned, suspicion falls on the relatives who
stand to benefit from her last will and testament, and Poirot is called
in to investigate. The Mysterious Affair at Styles is the astounding
result of a challenge from Christie's sister Madge, who dared her to
write a detective story in which the reader would be unable to spot the
perpetrator, although given access to the same clues as the detective.
