A novelisation of one of Agatha Christie's early plays.[return][return]Sir Claud has discovered the formula for a new explosive, which is stolen by someone in his house. He gives the thief time to replace the formula, and when the lights go back on, he is dead and Poirot has to work it out.[return][return]This does read like a play, lots of speech and very limited scenery (the majority of the book based in the drawing room and study) Hercule Poirot sat at breakfast in his small but agreeable cozy flat in Whitehall Mansions. He had enjoyed his brioche and his cup of hot chocolate. Unusually, for he was a creature of habit and rarely varied his breakfast routine, he had asked his valet, George to make him a second cup of chocolate. While he was awaiting it, he glanced again at the morning's post which lay on his breakfast table. Sir Claud Amory ha descubierto la fórmula de un nuevo y poderoso explosivo, que es robada por alguno de los numerosos huéspedes y familiares hospedados en su casa. Después de encerrar a todo el mundo en la biblioteca, sir Claud apaga la luz para permitir al ladrón devolver el botín, sin acusar a nadie. Pero, al encenderse la luz, sir Claud yace muerto, y será tarea de Hercule Poirot el desentrañar la red de disputas familiares, viejas querellas y extraños sospechosos para encontrar al asesino y prevenir una catástrofe mayor. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Sir Claud Amory's formula for a powerful new explosive has been stolen, presumably by a member of his large household. Sir Claud assembles his suspects in the library and locks the door, instructing them that the when the lights go out, the formula must be replaced on the table -- and no questions will be asked. But when the lights come on, Sir Claud is dead. Now Hercule Poirot, assisted by Captain Hastings and Inspector Japp, must unravel a tangle of family feuds, old flames, and suspicious foreigners to find the killer and prevent a global catastrophe.

There's some profanity, including God's name used as an exclamation.
