A classic "Who Done It" from the pen of the master of suspense.
Intrigue, murder, and the final unraveling of the mystery as only the incomparable Agatha Christie can do.

Before dying in prison for supposedly poisoning her husband fifteen years ago, Caroline Crale wrote her daughter Carla that she was clearly innocent. Carla believes her mother to be truthful and enlists the aid of Justin Fogg, son of her mother's defense attorney, who had fallen in love with Caroline while observing her trial. They persuade those present on the day of the murder to return to the scene and reenact their recollection of the events on the day Aymas Crale is poisoned while painting Elsa - his latest infatuation.

These are:

• Philip and Meredith Blake, life long friends of the Crales;
• Elsa, now Lady Melksham;
• Angela Warren, Caroline's stepsister - a child then;
• Miss Williams, Angela's governess; and
• Carla - taking the place of her mother Caroline.

Justin proves beyond doubt that Caroline did not murder her husband at the same time revealing the guilty party.
