Więcej o książce
Poirot sets himself a challenge before he retires - to solve 12 cases that correspond with the labours of his classical Greek namesake. In appearance, Hercule Poirot hardly resembled an ancient Greek hero. Yet, the detective reasoned that, like Hercules, he had been responsible for ridding society of some of its most unpleasant monsters. So, in the period leading up to his retirement, Poirot decided to accept just twelve more cases: his self-imposed 'Labours'. Each case would go down in the annals of crime as a heroic feat of deduction, showcasing Poirot's unparalleled skills in solving mysteries and bringing justice to those who have been wronged. Through these stories, readers are treated to a blend of clever plotting, intricate puzzles, and the unique charm of Poirot as he navigates the complexities of human nature and crime.
