Book Summary:
Closed Casket by Sophie Hannah is a modern Hercule Poirot mystery authorized by the Agatha Christie estate. Set in 1929, the story begins when wealthy children’s author Lady Athelinda Playford invites a group of guests, including Poirot and Inspector Edward Catchpool, to her country mansion in Ireland. During dinner, she shocks everyone by announcing a drastic change to her will—disinheriting her children and leaving her fortune to her dying secretary, Joseph Scotcher. That very night, a murder occurs, and Poirot must once again use his sharp intellect and keen observation to uncover the truth. With its classic setting, clever red herrings, and intricate plotting, Closed Casket pays homage to Agatha Christie’s style while delivering a fresh, suspenseful, and satisfying mystery that keeps readers guessing until the final reveal.
