Riassunto

Framed in the doorway of Poirot's bedroom stands an uninvited guest, coated from head to foot in dust. The gaunt man's face stares for a moment then sways and falls. Who is he, and what is the significance of the figure four scribbled repeatedly on a piece of paper?

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Framed in the doorway of Poirot’s bedroom stood an uninvited guest, coated from head to foot in dust. The man’s gaunt face stared for a moment, then he swayed and fell.

Who was he? Was he suffering from shock or just exhaustion? Above all, what was the significance of the figure four, scribbled over and over again on a sheet of paper?

Poirot finds himself plunged into a world of international intrigue, risking his life to uncover the significance of ‘Number Four’

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. She wrote 80 crime mysteries and collections, and saw her work translated into more languages than Shakespeare. Her enduring success, enhanced by many film and TV adaptations, is a tribute to the timeless appeal of her characters and the unequalled ingenuity of her plots.
