Description
In the aftermath of World War II, a young widow inherits a substantial fortune, much to the resentment of her late husband's family. Their hopes for the inheritance are dashed when a mysterious man claiming to be the widow's supposedly deceased first husband appears, threatening blackmail. When this enigmatic figure is found murdered, Hercule Poirot is drawn into a complex web of family secrets, hidden identities, and desperate motives. Poirot must navigate the deceptions and resentments to uncover the truth behind the death and the true identity of the man who claimed to be alive.
