Poirot Loses A Client.

AGATHA CHRISTIE

Publication: Dodd, Mead & Company, 1937, New York

First U.S. edition. 8vo. Fine, bright, tight copy in a bright dust jacket that has a few tiny chips at the extremities. Originally published in the U.K. in 1937, as DUMB WITNESS. Hercule Poirot receives a mysterious letter fifty-nine days after the writer's death. Miss Arundell was over seventy years of age and had been in failing health for a number of years, so it didn't arouse any suspicion when she died. But when Poirot found this posthumous letter waiting for him on his breakfast tray, it only increased his responsibility to examine the curious circumstances surrounding Miss Arundell's supposedly natural death. Beautiful copy.
