 Lost in the fog, a stranger seeks refuge in a nearby house. But when he enters he finds a woman with a smoking gun, standing over the body of her dead husband.

 With only 24 hours available to solve the mystery, Hercule Poirot recalled a chance remark he'd overheard back in Jerusalem: 'You see, don't you, that she's got to be killed?' Mrs Boynton was, indeed, the most detestable woman he'd ever met.
