説明

The tranquility of a post-wedding bliss is abruptly shattered for the charming Gordon Cloade, who, after marrying a captivating widow, finds himself ensnared in a web of intrigue and danger. Just weeks into their new life together, his world is turned upside down as a bomb blast claims his life, leaving behind stunned acquaintances and a perplexed community.

As those close to Cloade grapple with grief, it soon becomes evident that each of them harbors secrets and hidden motives. With some believing the tragic incident may have deeper implications, the atmosphere thickens with suspicion. Enter the shrewd and meticulous Hercule Poirot, who is drawn to unravel the tangled threads of mystery surrounding Cloade’s demise.

Poirot becomes an unlikely detective, navigating through a series of deceptive alibis and unspoken conflicts that seem to proliferate among the bereaved. As he uncovers the true circumstances of the bombing, the boundaries between innocence and guilt blur, leading to a shocking revelation that highlights the complexities of human nature.

Set against a backdrop of post-war England, the narrative expertly weaves themes of love, betrayal, and the lengths people will go to protect their own interests, compelling readers to ponder the true cost of ambition and desire. Through Poirot’s keen observations and unparalleled intuition, the truth emerges, offering closure to a tragedy that laments the fragility of life and trust.
