The story concerns Elinor Carlisle, accused of murdering another young woman while in a jealous rage. The evidence against Elinor is overwhelming, and she seems destined for prison until a friend and admirer engages Poirot. What follows is the usual Christie puzzle, which listeners are invited to help solve. This book is from a smoke-free home.

"Elinor Katherine Carlisle You stand charged with murder "
The demure and attractive young woman stood in the prisoner's box, listening to the
charges against her. What had begun as a
visit to her aged aunt now had turned into a nightmare----a nightmare from which she might never waken.
