The world's greatest detective, Hercule Poirot--legendary star of
Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express and Death on the
Nile--puts his little grey cells to work solving a baffling
Christmas mystery. It's December 19, 1931. Hercule Poirot and
Inspector Edward Catchpool are looking forward to a much-needed,
restful Christmas holiday, when they are called upon to investigate
the murder of a man in a Norfolk hospital ward. Cynthia Catchpool,
Edward's mother, insists that Poirot stay with her in a crumbling
mansion by the coast, so that they can all be together for the
festive period while he solves the case. As Poirot digs into the
mystery, he discovers that the murdered man was a retired post
office master, and by all accounts very well-liked. The local
constabulary's investigation failed to uncover how someone could
have entered a hospital room and killed him under the noses of the
staff. Cynthia's friend Arnold is soon to be admitted to that same
hospital, and his wife is convinced he will be the killer's next
victim, though she refuses to explain why. With no obvious motive
or suspect, Poirot has less than a week to solve the crime and
prevent more murders, if he is to escape from this nightmare
scenario and get home in time for Christmas. Meanwhile, someone
else--someone utterly ruthless--also has ideas about what ought to
happen to Hercule Poirot...
