Hercule Poirot is sitting alone in a London coffee house waiting for his evening meal to be served and a distressed young woman dashes in. He starts to talk to her and she says she is afraid that she is about to be murdered. She does not want help and does not want her killer to be brought to justice.
At about the same time three dead bodies are discovered at The Bloxham Hotel. They are in three different rooms but the scenes are the same and each body has a monogrammed cuff-link in their mouths. Poirot starts to investigate. He fears that there is a link between the murders and the scared young women who seems to now have disappeared.
This is the first Hercule Poirot mystery that Sophie Hannah has written.
