Publisher's Synopsis
Emily Inglethorp has been poisoned. And it seems everyone at Styles Court, from the hired help to family members, had a motive--and the means. But with Detective Hercule Poirot out of retirement and on the case, no one's getting away with murder.
The Mysterious Affair at Styles was not only Agatha Christie's debut; it also introduced her illustrious detective character to the world. Poirot's "little grey cells" would be put to the test in thirty-three more novels, but it was here that Christie and her unflappable Belgian sleuth would set the unimpeachable standard for the modern murder mystery.
