‘The best Agatha Christie since And Then There Were None’—Observer

The moment Arlena Stuart steps through the door, every eye in the resort is on her.

She is beautiful. She is famous. And in less than 72 hours she will be dead.

On this luxury retreat, cut off from the outside world, everyone is a suspect. The wandering husband. The jealous wife. The bitter step-daughter.

They all had a reason to kill Arlena Stuart. But who hated her enough to do it?

Ratings and reviews

Where there is Poirot, there is a murder! Even a relaxing holiday atmosphere turns tense in this book. Interesting characters and no need to repeat - an unexpected ending with logical reasons. Can't put it down. Good book.

sometimes, it's the obvious, and yet hard to pin.

An outstanding book by a writer par excellence. Simply loved it. A must read for all.
