Product Name: Agatha Christie, Sad Cypress: A Poirot Mystery, shop 1940
The shop first courtroom drama for Poirot, Sad Cypress was written in the build up to the Second World War, a particularly prolific period for Agatha Christie and her little Belgian. It is written in three parts – the defendant's account, the build-up to the murder, and Poirot's investigation. Reflecting upon the piece after publication, Christie decided it would have been better without the character of Poirot. ~ https://www.agathachristie.com/stories/sad-cypress.
