    “Book Descriptions: Pretty Lily Margrave is not convinced that Hercule Poirot is needed in the matter of Sir Reuben Astwell's murder. But at the request of her employer, Lady Astwell, she has come to see Hercule Poirot and recount what happened ten days ago in the Tower Room, and how the victim's nephew, Charles Leverson, came to be charged with the murder.

    Margrave coveys the request of Lady Astwell for Poirot to visit the great house, Mon Repos, to see if he can find out anything. While at first the family is struck by Poirot's ardent endeavour to uncover what befell Sir Astwell, his insistence on looking into every nook and cranny becomes too much for some to bear. Does a scrap of material, the contents of a tiny box, and his singular ingenuity lead the detective to uncover who is behind this violent act?
