Curtain: Poirot's Last Case
by Agatha Christie
Captain Arthur Hastings returns to Styles Court, the site of his first investigation, to find the grand estate transformed into a guest house and his old friend Hercule Poirot a frail, arthritis-stricken shadow of his former self. Despite his physical decline, Poirot’s brilliant mind remains sharp, and he reveals a chilling motive for their reunion: a murderer is currently among the guests. As Hastings reconnects with his daughter Judith and a cast of seemingly pleasant strangers, he must act as the mobile eyes and ears for a legendary detective who is determined to close his final case.
