Poirot helps a young lady to find out the truth about her mother and the murder she was convicted for. As Poirot gathers the stories from everyone involved we get each one's point of view on the matter. But though the main stories are the same, the details vary. So who is lying and who is telling the truth?
In my experience the culprit is never the character I like the least,
so again I was wrong about who the real murderer was. And again I'm glad it's Poirot and his little grey cells who's asked to solve the case, not me lol
