The Affair at the Victory Ball: A Short Story by Agatha Christie

4.0

Viscount Cronshaw is found dead at the Victory Ball with a table knife in his heart shortly after fighting with actress Coco Courtenay. Coco herself is later found dead of a cocaine overdose in her bed. Inspector Japp comes to Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings for help untangling the mystery.

A good example of a typical Poirot mystery, keeping all the facts and his observations a secret until the grand reveal before all the people involved with the murder. 4 out of 5.
