When beloved patriarch Aristide Leonides is found dead in his study, suspicion falls on his eccentric, moneyed family living under one roof at the crookedly built estate. Young Charles Hayward, engaged to Aristide’s granddaughter Sophia, arrives determined to uncover the truth behind the apparent poisoning. As Charles interviews each family member—each with their own grievances and secrets—the tangled webs of loyalty, jealousy, and betrayal come to light. With every revelation more startling than the last, he realizes that the true killer may be hiding in plain sight among those he trusts most. In this masterful puzzle, Agatha Christie weaves a taut, atmospheric tale where the deadliest weapon is the secrets we keep.
