About this ebook

At last, a single volume that gathers together all of the short stories featuring Agatha Christie's most famous creation, Hercule Poirot. The dapper, mustache-twirling little Belgian with the egg-shaped head and curious mannerisms has solved some of the most puzzling crimes of the century—and, in his own humble opinion, is "probably the greatest detective in the world."

In this complete collection of more than 50 stories, ranging from short tales to novellas, Poirot faces violent murders, poisonings, kidnappings, and thefts—all solved with his characteristic panache. Only Agatha Christie could have devised cases worthy of Hercule Poirot's skill and "little gray cells."

Ratings and reviews

On Agatha Christie and Hercule!! Lots of stories, some you can do several in a day.. I love the novels with Hercule!!! Its great at bed time!! Be warned after reading this you won't need to buy many of Agatha short stories, many of Hercule's are included! I accidentally bought one I already read! A great money saver! I don't regret this purchase! Lasted me a month sometimes 2 stories a night sometimes several night to finish one! Just in a set of 3 Hercule stories, last one is already in this book, "the adventures of the cheap flat" or something like that, but does NOT " HAVE ALL" short stories as it claims but a great many! Very worth trying it out even if new to Agatha Christie or Hercule Poiriot!! Was my first Hercule Poiriot!

Not only are the stories intriguing, but the writing transports the reader to a different time and society. Highly recommended!

These stories add so much for understanding our favorite slueth, a great read
