The Mysterious Affair at Styles ebook

"The impossible could not have happened, therefore the impossible must be possible in spite of appearances." Styles Court is a manor house full of secrets and simmering tensions. When the wealthy matriarch Emily Inglethorp is found dead in her locked bedroom, poisoned in a way that defies logic, the quiet village of Styles St. Mary is thrust into a scandal. With an inheritance at stake and every member of the household acting suspiciously, the authorities are baffled—but one man sees what others miss. The Arrival of a Legend: This is where it all began. Hercule Poirot, a Belgian refugee with a magnificent mustache and an even more magnificent intellect, steps onto the stage for the very first time. Assisted by his loyal friend Captain Arthur Hastings, Poirot demonstrates the power of his "little grey cells," meticulously examining every stray thread and shattered coffee cup to find a truth hidden in plain sight. The Blueprint of the Whodunit: Agatha Christie's 1920 debut changed the genre forever.
