Poirot 30: Hickory Dickory Dock by Agatha Christie, ISBN 9780007120994

> Fiction Books > Crime Books

A new-look series of Hercule Poirot books for the 21st century.

An outbreak of kleptomania at a student hostel was not normally the sort of crime that aroused Hercule Poirot's interest. But when he saw the list of stolen and vandalised items - including a stethoscope, some old flannel trousers, a box of chocolates, a slashed rucksack and a diamond ring found in a bowl of soup - he congratulated the warden, Mrs Hubbard, on a "unique and beautiful problem".

The list made absolutely no sense at all. But, reasoned Poirot, if this was merely a petty thief a work, why was everyone at the hostel so frightened?
