Interesting story from the queen of crime. An old woman, surrounded by relatives who would like to gain from her, falls from the stairs. It is believed that the terrier, Bob has left the ball that it plays with on the top of the stairs. A few days later, she dies. Her death is believed to be from natural causes. However, she has written a letter to Hercule poirot, which, mysteriously, reaches Poirot only after she dies.
So, what has really happened? Did she die of natural causes? Did Bob, the dog, really was at fault?
That is what Poirot unwields finally!
As in every other Agatha Christie's novel, the build up is slow but surely it picks up pace and the denouement is very good!
