A masterwork of golden-age detective fiction, Appointment with Death sends Hercule Poirot on an investigation set against the sun-baked landscapes of the ancient Jordanian city of Petra. The story centres on the domineering and despised Mrs Boynton, a tyrannical matriarch who holds her family in a grip of psychological terror — until she is found dead during a Middle Eastern holiday. Poirot, present by chance, has just twenty-four hours to unravel the truth before the suspects scatter to the winds. Christie crafts a tightly wound psychological thriller that argues the most dangerous prisons are not made of stone, but of the mind.
