Lord Edgware Dies: A Hercule Poirot Mystery (Hercule Poirot Mysteries #9) (Paperback)
In this official authorized edition from the Queen of Mystery, detective Hercule Poirot must solve a most confounding conundrum when Lord Edgware has a most unnatural death.
When Lord Edgware is found murdered the police are baffled. His estranged actress wife was seen visiting him just before his death and Hercule Poirot himself heard her brag of her plan to “get rid” of him.
But how could she have stabbed Lord Edgware in his library at exactly the same time she was seen dining with friends? It’s a case that almost proves to be too much for the great Poirot.
Agatha Christie is the most widely published author of all time, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. Her books have sold more than a billion copies in English and another billion in a hundred foreign languages. She died in 1976, after a prolific career spanning six decades.

“The whole case is a triumph of Poirot’s special qualities.” — Times Literary Supplement (London)
