When Poirot receives an urgent letter from P T Renauld in Northern France he, and Hastings leap into action. However when they get there they find that M. Renauld has been murdered; his body found on the unfinished golf course outside his villa. Despite the fact there seem to be few suspects, Poirot is faced with a challenging case; particularly when a further body turns up.
Given that this is only her second Poiort novel was Chistie successful in stepping away from her knowledge of poisons and using a different murder method? Should Christie have pitted Poiort against Giraud in more stories?
