It seems Hitlerâe(tm)s Luftwaffe arenâe(tm)t the only ones responsible for the deaths of innocent people as World War II rages âe" it seems plenty of murderers are willing to help them reduce Britainâe(tm) war-torn population even further. And itâe(tm)s up to Hercule Poirot to stop themâe¦ ONE, TWO, BUCKLE MY SHOE The dentist was found with a blackened hole below his right temple. A pistol lay on the floor near his outflung right hand. Later, one of his patients was found dead from a lethal dose of anaesthetic. A clear case of murder and suicide âe" but why would a dentist commit a crime in the middle of a busy day of appointments? A show buckle holds the key to the mystery. Now âe" in the words of the rhyme âe" can Poirot pick up the sticks and lay them straight? FIVE LITTLE PIGS Beautiful Caroline Crale was convicted of poisoning her husband, yet there were five other subjects: Philip Blake (the stockbroker) who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist) who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcee) who had roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess) who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister) who cried âe~wee wee weeâe(tm) all the way home. It is sixteen years later, but Hercule Poirot just canâe(tm)t get that nursery rhyme out of his headâe¦ TAKEN AT THE FLOOD A few weeks after marrying an attractive young widow, Gordon Cloade is tragically killed by a bomb blast in the London Blitz. Overnight, the former Mrs Underhay finds herself in sole possession of the Cloade family fortune. Shortly afterward, Hercule Poirot receives a visit from the dead manâe(tm)s sister-in-law, who claims she has been warned by âe~spiritsâe(tm) that Mrs Underhayâe(tm)s first husband is still alive. Yet, what mystifies Poirot most is the womanâe(tm)s true motive for approaching him.
