Average rating3.8
Everyone blamed Emily Arundell’s accident on a rubber ball left on the stairs at her home in Market Basing by her frisky terrier, Bob. But the more she thought about her fall, the more convinced she became that one of her relatives was trying to kill her.
So, on April 17th she wrote about her anxieties and suspicions in a letter to Hercule Poirot. And included a request that he consult with her as soon as possible. Mysteriously he didn’t receive the letter until June 28th … by which time Emily was already dead.

A well worth second reading, with great graphics, and Marek has put in, what I think is a sneaky drawing of the boy detective, Tin Tin, but you'll have to find him yourself! I've never liked the title “Dumb Witness”, but checking on the Goodreads list, the other title “Poirot Loses a Client” is well, not the same; I'll just have to live with it.
Solid story with a cast of characters small enough that it was easy to keep track, plus there were some delightful bits with Hastings and Bob the dog.
