In one of the few short stories without Captain Hastings, the Belgian detective must face up to solving a mystery without his trusty companion. But it's a different kind of murder mystery. One that hasn't happened as yet. Could he be wrong? A classic Agatha Christie short story, available individually for the first time as an eBook. Librarian's note: this entry is for the story, "Wasps' Nest." Collections of short stories by the author can be found elsewhere on Goodreads. Individual entries for all Poirot short stories can be found by searching Goodreads for: "a Hercule Poirot Short Story."

Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are restless for adventure, so when they are asked to take over Blunt's International Detective Agency, they leap at the chance. Their first case is a success—the triumphant recovery of a pink pearl. Other cases soon follow—a stabbing on Sunningdale golf course; cryptic messages in the personal columns of newspapers; and even a box of poisoned chocolates. But can they live up to their slogan of "Any case solved in 24 hours"?
