Dumb Witness by Agatha Christie
4.0

Everyone blamed Emily Arundell’s accident on a rubber ball left on the stairs by her 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 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.

I love the way that Christie writes Bob's interactions with Hastings.
