Agatha Christie July 1973 printing. A Hercule Poirot Murder Mystery. Here is the passage from the first page inside the front cover: So many people could have killed her. Was it her proud and reserved husband, who knew she was an adulteress? Or her strange stepdaughter who made voodoo dolls and stuck pins in them? Or the religious fanatic who was tortured by her beauty? Or the young man who was so obviously in love with her? Or any one of the women who had, or thought they had, reasons to wish her dead? "Going to give us a hand, Poirot?" asked Chief Constable Watson. "You would permit it, yes?" "Delighted to have you, my dear fellow." So Hercule Poirot, the estimable Belgian sleuth, interrupted his holiday to work with the local police, and the book "Evil Under the Sun" is an account of one of his most fascinating jobs of detection.
