I dissect rucksacks, my friend. It is very interesting.' Hercule Poirot doesn't need all his detective skills to realise something is troubling his secretary, Miss Lemon - she has made three mistakes in a simple letter. It seems an outbreak of kleptomania at the student hostel in which her sister works is distracting his usually efficient assistant. Deciding that desperate time call for desperate measures, the great detective agrees to investigate. But unknown to Poirot, desperation is a motive he shares with a killer...
Sad Cypres
Does it matter? She might have done it, yes! I don't care is she did. I don't want her hanged, I tell you! Beautiful young Elinor Carlisle stood serenely in the dock, accused of the murder of Mary Gerrard, her rival in love.

Death in the Clouds
You seem very much interested in the wasp, Monsieur Poirot.'From seat No.9, Hercule Poirot was ideally placed to observe his fellow air passengers. Over to his right sat a pretty young woman, clearly infatuated with the man opposite; ahead, in seat No.13, sat a Countess with a poorly-concealed cocaine habit; across the gangway in seat No.8, a detective writer was bring troubled by an aggressive wasp. What Poirot did not yet realize was that behind him, in seat No.2, sat the slumped, lifeless body of a woman...
The Clocks
The cuckoo clock struck three all right, but all the others were about an hour fast. How very off! When the Cavendish Bureau was telephoned and asked to send one of their secretaries to a house in Wilbraham Crescent, the caller made no mention of the dead body she would find there. Who made the call to the agency? Who was the murdered man? And why were there clocks in the room that didn't belong there? The clocks had stopped, but the time is ticking away for Hercule Poirot...
