Dumb Witness

Hercule Poirot has beaten thieves and murderers. But has he finally met his match with Bob the dog? This brand new Special Edition hardback celebrates Poirot's famous canine mystery, perfect for dog-loving Agatha Christie fans.

A simple accident? Or attempted murder?

Everyone blamed the dog. When a wealthy spinster trips on the stairs, it seems only natural to assume it was an accident – a rubber ball left there by her lively terrier.

And yet the more Emily Arundell thought about it, the more convinced she became that one of her relatives was trying to kill her. Seeking answers, she writes to the famous detective, Hercule Poirot.

Only, by the time her letter arrives, Miss Arundell is dead.

Review

'An excellent story in the best Christie vein.' The Times

'She adds a terrier so fascinating that even Poirot himself is nearly driven from the centre of the stage.' Guardian
