Hercule Poirot receives an urgent letter from a millionaire in northern France who fears for his life, but by the time Poirot and Hastings arrive, Paul Renauld has been found stabbed and lying in a freshly dug grave beside a golf course. A young and arrogant detective from the Paris police treats Poirot as an old has-been, and the two men race to solve a case with echoes of an old murder.

Context and significance

Published in 1923, this was Agatha Christie's second Poirot novel, and it is full of false trails, French atmosphere and a romance for Captain Hastings with a mysterious young acrobat he calls Cinderella. Read it after The Mysterious Affair at Styles.
