After the Funeral: Hercule Poirot Investigates | Agatha Christie

pick

4 Stars • Richard Abernethie dies, and his family gathers for the funeral. His sister Cora, known for her eccentricities, remarks that "someone must have helped him on with it," suggesting murder. Initially dismissed as a nonsensical comment, it later becomes the crux of the mystery. Cora herself is found murdered shortly after, making her comment seem prophetic. ⬇️

suvata Hercule Poirot, intrigued by the case, begins to investigate. He delves into the lives and alibis of the Abernethie family members, each with their own motives due to the inheritance. 3mo

Agatha Christie's Poirot | Agatha Christie

#WhereAreYouMonday @Cupcake12

I‘m in the Cotswolds!!! I had to do a little bit of research because the name of the town is a fictional place, but apparently it‘s based on a Cotswold village.

Appointment with Death: Murder is Easy | Agatha Christie

I‘m torn between Agatha Christie novels placed in small English villages or the ones with the settings at world heritages sites. I loved this one because the murder happened at Petra. 🏛️

Set in Jordan (Petra).

Eggs Excellent 👌🏼 6mo

CaramelLunacy Ooh, didn't know this was set in Petra! 6mo

Yuki_Onna @CaramelLunacy It's set in Israel at the very beginning (Jerusalem, me thinks), but then they go on to Jordan and visit Petra. Don't know how long they stay there, it's been so long since I read it, but the desert setting is still vivid in my mind. I enjoyed this one very much when I read it. 6mo

This one is a fairly fun if a little bland Christie mystery. Poirot is back yet again, but he seems a little tired. I guess it's good he's staying busy and keeping his mind sharp, and growing marrows in the country wasn't his thing, but he tries to retire and people just keep bothering him. Maybe he could open a school to teach younger generations to solve mysteries and grow elaborate mustaches so they can fend for themselves eventually.
