From this classic title novella to the deliciously clever stories that follow -- solved to perfection by Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple -- this rare collection of murder most foul showcases Christie at her inventive best, proving her reputation as ''the champion deceiver of our time'' (New York Times).
