In the newly adapted and stylish new comic book, Poirot is called to investigate when a charity murder game at a Devon house turns into the real thing...
Sir George and Lady Stubbs, the hosts of a village fête, hit upon the novel idea of staging a mock murder mystery. In good faith, Ariadne Oliver, the well known crime writer, agrees to organise their murder hunt.
Despite weeks of meticulous planning, at the last minute Ariadne calls her friend Hercule Poirot for his expert assistance. Instinctively, she senses that something sinister is about to happen...
Beware nobody is quite what they seem!
The Man in the Brown Suit
A man is killed by a tube train, and a young girl sets off on an international adventure to find the murderers in this exciting new comic strip adaptation.
Pretty, young Anne has come to London looking for adventure, but adventure finds her when a thin man, reeking of mothballs, loses his balance on the platform at Hyde Park Corner station and is electocuted on the rails.
The Scotland Yard verdict is accidental death. But Anne is not satisfied. Who was the man in the brown suit who examined the body before racing off? Anne is determined to follow him…
Hallowe’en Party
A thirteen-year-old girl holds the clue to a death at a party on 31st October – was it a fatal mistake or a murder?
At a Hallowe’en party, Joyce – a hostile thirteen-year-old – boasts that she once witnessed a murder. When no-one believes her, she storms off home. But within hours her body is found, still in the house, drowned in an apple-bobbing tub.
That night, Hercule Poirot is called in to find the ‘evil presence’. But first he must establish whether he is looking for a murderer or a double-murderer.
The Big Four
Monsieur Poirot and Captain Hastings embark on a round-the-world trip to defeat the criminal masterminds who call themselves The Big Four, in a thrilling new comic book adaptation.
Framed in the doorway of Poirot’s bedroom stands an uninvited guest, coated from head to foot in dust. The man’s gaunt face stares for a moment, then he sways and falls.
Who is he? Is he suffering from shock or just exhaustion? Above all, what is the significance of the figure 4, scribbled over and over again on a sheet of paper? Poirot finds himself plunged into a world of international intrigue, risking his life to uncover the truth about ‘Number Four’.
Evil Under the Sun
Agatha Christie s exotic seaside mystery thriller now in an exciting new comic strip adaptation.
It was not unusual to find the beautiful bronzed body of the sun-loving Arlena Stuart stretched out on a beach, face down. Only, on this occasion, there was no sun... she had been strangled.
Ever since Arlena s arrival at the resort, Hercule Poirot had detected sexual tension in the seaside air. But could this apparent crime of passion have been something more evil and premeditated altogether?
Endless Night
A faithful picture strip adaptation of Agatha Christie’s famous 1960s thriller, in which a man buys a piece of land that appears to be cursed…
Gipsy's Acre is a truly beautiful place. In fact, it is the perfect location to build the house of your dreams - so long as you don't believe in ancient curses. Michael and Ellie don't. They are young, rich and far too happy to be put off by an old woman's warnings. Even when accidents start to happen…
Written in 1967 towards the end of her career, this claustrophobic thriller was a remarkable achievement for Agatha Christie, proving that she could still shock and surprise modern audiences after nearly 50 years writing books. Described by the Sunday Times as "One of the best things Agatha Christie has ever done", it has been adapted by François Rivière and given an authentic Sixties' look by artist Frank Leclercq.
Murder in Mesopotamia
An archaeologist s wife is murdered on the shores of the River Tigris in Iraq, and Hercule Poirot must find the killer...
An expedition to excavate the ruins of an ancient city in Iraq is halted by a grisly murder. Mrs Leidner, wife of the famous archaeologist, had been warning about death threats, but everyone knows that the heat makes you imagine things. Now, on the edge of the beautiful River Tigris, the open desert becomes the claustrophobic setting for an exotic investigation...
