About This Novel
Officially authorized by the Agatha Christie Estate, the sequel to the Hercule Poirot series. The legendary British detective Hercule Poirot returns! A graceful viscountess × a bizarrely revised will with a sky-high price × a masked "Don Juan" whose time is running out, this is a pioneering interpretation of Shakespeare's unpopular masterpiece "King John", and a triple twist that is astonishing. What I am about to announce will surely horrify you all... At Lily Oak Manor in County Cork, Ireland, Viscountess Athelinda Playford held a dinner party, but this dinner had a hidden mystery. When all the guests arrived, the old lady suddenly summoned a lawyer to urgently modify her will. She planned to announce at the banquet that night that she would give away her entire inheritance to a stranger who only had a few weeks to live, and her two biological children were completely deprived of their inheritance rights. The guest list includes two people they have never met: the famous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and Scotland Yard Inspector Edward Catchpool. Just as the two were confused about the reason for the invitation, Poirot gradually realized that Mrs. Playford might have foreseen that the murder was coming. However, what is even more puzzling is why she insists on deliberately provoking potential murderers? Even though Poirot tried his best to stop it, the bloody crime still happened as scheduled, and the identity of the deceased was completely unexpected. Can Poirot clear away the fog and let the truth come to light?
