About this eBook

A woman is killed by a poisoned dart in the enclosed confines of a commercial passenger plane...

From seat No.9, Hercule Poirot was ideally placed to observe his fellow air passengers. Over to his right sat a pretty young woman, clearly infatuated with the man opposite; ahead, in seat No.13, sat a Countess with a poorly-concealed cocaine habit; across the gangway in seat No.8, a detective writer was being troubled by an aggressive wasp.

What Poirot did not yet realize was that behind him, in seat No.2, sat the slumped, lifeless body of a woman.

From the beginning till the end you keep on changing the views about who the killer was but in the end, as usual, it is way more unexpected. The connections between the passengers is smooth and the way the murder was committed later revealed in the end was brilliant! Wonderful Poirot and his little grey cells. Really good!
