Description
Poirot finds himself in an old English country mansion for the Christmas festivities. We open with the two elderly people present, Poirot and Aunt Emily, sitting around the fire and enjoying the disorderly chatter of the family's young folks. Poirot is interrupted by a cautionary note "Don't eat any plum-pudding." What is this all about? And why is our detective with the egg-shaped head even here?
