A mystery by the master of Golden Age Detective fiction. Lord Cronshaw is murdered at a masked Victory Ball and his fiancé is found dead the next morning of a cocaine overdose. Poirot realizes the costumes worn by the party hold the key to the killer's identity. Christie fans will not be disappointed.
