The two of them have opposing opinions on why Sir James Dwighton has been bashed over the head with a blunt instrument. Rumor had it that red-haired beauty Laura Dwighton and her guest, the very attractive Mr. Paul Delangua, were engaged in an illicit affair, and Paul was thrown out by the disgruntled Sir James. But the facts of the murder all seem to add up too nicely, and then Mr. Quin arrives on the scene….

Ratings and reviews

I have the book that this story was taken from. in fact I have all of AC's original books. I love AC's style of writing. I love her characters. Each one is different but follows the same basic flow.

Christie is the best at her work. This story was rather short but well written. I expected it longer in length. I consider it better than average.

Not superb but good. Considering she wrote 100`s its remarkable her consistency.
