Dead Man's Folly

 Fiction by Agatha Christie

Ariadne Oliver, mystery-story writer, is setting up a "murder hunt" on a country estate for a village fete. She is caught up in making the clues (and the solution!) as interesting as possible, but she keeps feeling like something is wrong. What if the planned pretend murder somehow turns into a real one? She calls on her friend Hercule Poirot for help.

Although Poirot doesn't prevent the murder that the reader knows is coming (alas!), he does solve the case in the end. And you'll never guess!

I also read recently by this author: After the Funeral
