"With method and logic one can accomplish anything!"―Agatha Christie, Poirot Investigates

An American starlet with a mysterious diamond, a suicide that may be more than it appears, an impossibly cheap flat, a locked room murder, a million–dollar robbery, an ancient pharaoh's curse, a precious stolen jewel, a political abduction, a disappeared banker, a phone call form a dying man, and a missing will ... Who could possibly solve such varied, gruesome, and dastardly crimes? None other than Agatha Christie's beloved Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot!

Poirot Investigates is the very first collection of short stories featuring Poirot. These eleven stories are filled to bursting with Poirot's trademark wit and incredible skills of deduction, and each story will leave you guessing until the very end.

      As always, the inestimable David Suchet rises to the challenge of playing Agatha Christie's vain and brilliant Belgian detective. His characterization is dead-on. As Poirot employs his "little grey cells" to solve a murder, a jewel robbery, and other misdeeds, Suchet not only captures Poirot's fussiness and mannerisms to a "T" but does the same with the supporting characters and the narrative itself. Poirot's sidekick, the clueless Captain Hastings, adds comic pomposity and aching frustration (over Poirot's vanity). All in all, Suchet's delivery tickles the ear like gentle, upbeat prose music.
