After The Funeral: Agatha Christie

Cora Lansquenet had always been tactless - and her well bred family chose to ignore the remark she made after her brother Richard's funeral: "He was murdered, wasn't he?" They remembered it the next day, when Cora was found murdered with a hatchet - and several days later, when Cora's companion was sent a sliver of wedding cake steeped in arsenic...But by then, the family solicitor had called in Hercule Poirot.
