'Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned' is an adage that Derek Kettering isn't likely to forget since his snubbed mistress, the tempestuous Mirelle, has denounced him to the police as his wife's murderer!

But somehow Hercule Poirot just can't get that mysterious figure 'the Marquis' out of his mind.
