Book synopsis
What begins as a routine morning at 58 Queen Charlotte Street ends in tragedy when Hercule Poirot's dentist, the seemingly unremarkable Mr. Morley, is found dead. While a gunshot wound to the temple and a pistol by his side suggest a clear-cut case of suicide, Poirot is unconvinced by the lack of a clear motive. As the detective investigates a roster of patients ranging from powerful financiers to mysterious foreigners, he discovers that a simple dental appointment may have been the catalyst for murder. Amidst the echoes of a childhood nursery rhyme, Poirot must peel back layers of deception to find the truth behind the dentist's demise.
What you'll take away
- Follow Hercule Poirot as he investigates a death that occurs just hours after his own dental appointment.
- Uncover the secret lives of dental patients, from the powerful banker Alistair Blunt to the elusive Miss Sainsbury Seale.

- Decipher how a simple nursery rhyme provides the structural clues to a complex web of murder and motive.

It handled a complicated topic without talking down to me. Worth far more than what I paid.

Gets to the point without padding. The ending landed better than I expected.
