Or does she? This case was one of the most difficult for Hercule Poirot, and almost went unsolved except for an overheard passing remark in the street.one evening. Everyone it seems, has a motive for doing away with the despicable Lord Edgware and everyone has an alibi. Who did it? And how? I really liked this particular story.
