About this book
On a windswept golf course in northern France, a celebrated businessman's life is cut short under baffling circumstances, and a second attempt on someone else's life raises the stakes. Called in to investigate, the fastidious Hercule Poirot—accompanied by the ever-curious Captain Hastings—must sift through tangled motives, clandestine love affairs, long-buried betrayals, and a puzzle of seemingly contradictory clues that point in every direction at once. With brisk pacing, astute observation, and a parade of red herrings, Agatha Christie serves up a masterful mystery that invites readers to match wits with Poirot before the final, unexpected revelation.
