Nick Buckley was an unusual name for a pretty young woman. But then she had led an unusual life. First,on a treacherous Cornish hillside,the brakes on her car failed. Then,on a coastal path,a falling boulder missed her by inches. Later,an oil painting fell and almost crushed her in bed.
Upon discovering a bullet-hole in Nick's sun hat,Hercule Poirot decides the girl needs his protection. At the same time,he begins to unravel the mystery of a murder that hasn't been committed. Yet.

MEDIA REVIEWS
"The actual solution is quite unusually ingenious."Times Literary Supplement
Agatha Christie
The reigning queen of crime,Agatha Christie's life took her from her home in the Devon countryside to Cairo,Australia and,of course,a journey on the Orient Express. She created two of the most famous detectives in literature,the moustached Belgian super-sleuth Hercule Poirot and the deceptively genteel village investigator Miss Marple,as well as creating the longest running stage playThe Mousetrap.
