"Who killed whom?" The question is posed of mystery writer Ariadne Oliver. This time the whodunit isn't fiction, but rather a true crime from her own past: an apparent case of double suicide that claimed the lives of two friends twelve years earlier.

But the most startling discovery is yet to come. And if memory serves Poirot, crime--like history--has a tendency to repeat itself...
