An Indian tailor stuck a needle in an elephant’s trunk and years later that elephant sucked up water and sprayed it on the same man who had caused him pain years before. Elephants do remember, that’s the old saying right?

Well, Ms. Adrian Oliver, a mystery novelist, has to find her own “elephants” in order to solve a cold case that is nearly twenty years old. She is on the hunt to find out whether this case was a murder or double suicide or even something else. But she needs the well-known Hercule Poirot to help her solve this convoluted mystery. And the end, she solves a mystery that was definitely a twisted mystery.

This is one of Christie’s books from the Hercule Poirot series. It is not much different than the Miss Marple series. However, I prefer the Miss Marple series simply because I like the witty old lady, Miss Marple, over the middle aged man who likes his fruity drinks, Hercule Poirot. However, the mystery of the case is still invigorating and worth reading.
