With his career still in its formative years, the panache with which Hercule Poirot could solve even the most puzzling mystery is obvious. Chronicled by his friend Captain Hastings, these eighteen early cases — from theft and robbery to kidnapping and murder — were all guaranteed to test Poirot's soon-to-be-famous 'little grey cells' to their absolute limit.
