Nick Buckley was a curious name for a pretty young woman. But then hers was no ordinary case. First, on a treacherous Cornish hillside, the brakes on her car failed. Then, on a coastal path, a falling boulder missed her by inches. Later, an oil painting fell and almost crushed her in her bed. Upon discovering a bullet-hole in Nick's sun hat, Hercule Poirot decides the girl needs his protection. At the same time, he begins to unravel the mystery of a murder that hasn't been committed. Yet.
One of my favorites. It is cleverly plotted with a memorable setup and some entertaining interactions between Poirot and Hastings.
