When Ariadne Oliver, the mystery novelist, summons Poirot to join her at a country house in Devon, he respects her 'intuition' enough to do so immediately. When she tells him, however, that she is at Nasse House to stage a Murder Hunt at a fête, he is at first concerned that she is wasting his time. But it is not long before he realises that Mrs. Oliver's fears are fully justified.

A BBC Radio 4 full cast dramatisation starring John Moffatt as Hercule Poirot and Julia McKenzie (TBC) as Ariadne Oliver.
