A full-length novel by Charles Osborne adapted from Agatha
Christie's stage play, in which a diplomat's wife finds a body that
mustn't be discovered... Following BLACK COFFEE and THE UNEXPECTED
GUEST comes the final Agatha Christie play novelisation, bringing
her superb storytelling to a new legion of fans. Clarissa, the wife
of a Foreign Office diplomat, is given to daydreaming. 'Supposing I
were to come down one morning and find a dead body in the library,
what should I do?' she muses. Clarissa has her chance to find out
when she discovers a body in the drawing-room of her house in Kent.
Desperate to dispose of the body before her husband comes home with
an important foreign politician, Clarissa persuades her three house
guests to become accessories and accomplices. It seems that the
murdered man was not unknown to certain members of the house party
(but which ones?), and the search begins for the murderer and the
motive, while at the same time trying to persuade a police
inspector that there has been no murder at all...
