I really enjoyed this Hercules Poirot murder mystery. A young woman is an heir to a fortune but is on trial and about to be convicted of murdering another young woman. The murdered woman is her rival for the affections of the man she is passionately in love with and may also threaten her long expected inheritance. The legalities of inheritance and poison are all instrumental to the plot. Can Poirot unravel the mystery in time?  The best part of this mystery is the unusual denouement - the mystery solution is resolved during the court trial.
