«Appointment with Death»

While traveling in the East, Hercule Poirot stopped in Jerusalem. One evening, standing by the open window of his hotel room, he suddenly heard a phrase spoken somewhere nearby: "You do understand that she needs to be killed, right?" At first, the detective did not attach any importance to these words. But soon he had to remember them when his hotel neighbor, a wealthy elderly American woman traveling with her family – daughter, son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren – died unexpectedly. Poirot learns that in life the deceased, a former prison warden, was a true family tyrant. The great detective is puzzled about who killed the old woman. And is it even murder...? After all, there are absolutely no traces left. Meanwhile, Poirot has only twenty-four hours to solve the mystery...

«The Third Girl»

Early in the morning, a young eccentric named Norma Restarick knocked on the door of the famous detective Hercule Poirot and asked for an appointment. The girl looked unwell: frightened, nervous, unbalanced. From her vague explanations, one could understand only one thing: the girl does not rule out that she committed murder. However, she cannot remember either the name of the victim, the circumstances of the murder, or the crime scene. The murderer exists, but the murder itself has not been found. The investigation of the crime will fall to Hercule Poirot.

So why haven’t all these chilling enigmas been solved before? Perhaps it's because here, by the fireplace, the brilliant Miss Marple is hearing them for the first time?
