Publisher Description
The unstoppable Hercule Poirot finds himself in the Middle East with only one day to solve a murder in the classic Agatha Christie mystery, Appointment with Death.
Among the towering red cliffs of Petra, like some monstrous swollen Buddha, sits the corpse of Mrs. Boynton. A tiny puncture mark on her wrist is the only sign of the fatal injection that killed her.
With only twenty-four hours available to solve the mystery, Hercule Poirot recalled a chance remark he’d overheard back in Jerusalem: “You see, don’t you, that she’s got to be killed?” Mrs. Boynton was, indeed, the most detestable woman he’d ever met. . . .
Customer Reviews
One of Agatha's best
What can I say, another great 'who done it' by the Queen of mystery, Dame Agatha Christie! Hugh Fraser as always is excellent! This novel is a 4.5 ⭐️, in the top 20 of her best.
Christie Cruises
I’ve read and heard many Poirot stories and this one is middle of the road. It seemed a little formulaic with familiar themes and characters. Enjoyable of course, but I thought Christie was not at her peak with this plot. Inventiveness a bit lacking for me.
