About the Book
"Young Nick Buckley has escaped death three times: first, the brakes of her car failed when she was about to go down a hill; then a huge rock nearly crushed her, and at last a heavy painting collapsed on her bed. When Hercule Poirot discovers a bullet hole in Nick's hat, he's sure the girl needs his protection. However, the detective's efforts are not enough, and he soon realizes that the killer does not intend to stop until he reaches his goal. Poirot must muster all his wits to solve the case before the crime is committed."--Book Synopsis
Un ingenioso crimen que sólo Hércules Poirot puede resolver.
«Diabólicamente inteligente.» The New York Times Book Review
La joven Nick Buckley ha escapado tres veces de la muerte: primero, los frenos de su coche fallaron cuando se disponía a bajar por una colina; después, una enorme roca estuvo a punto de aplastarla, y por último, un pesado cuadro se desplomó sobre su cama. Cuando Hércules Poirot descubre un agujero de bala en el sombrero de Nick, está seguro de que la chica necesita de su protección. Sin embargo, los esfuerzos del detective no son suficientes, y pronto se da cuenta de que el asesino no piensa parar hasta alcanzar su objetivo. Poirot deberá reunir todo su ingenio para resolver el caso antes de que se cometa el crimen.
