Poirot

Four feature-length cases. In Hercule Poirot's Christmas, cruel old Simeon Lee gathers his family for Christmas and is found with his throat cut in a locked room; the killer is Superintendent Sugden, his illegitimate son. In Hickory Dickory Dock, a run of petty thefts at a student hostel, where Miss Lemon's sister works, ends in murder. In Murder on the Links, Poirot and Hastings head to France, where a millionaire who asked for help is found dead on a golf course, and Hastings falls in love. In Dumb Witness, a wealthy woman who fell down the stairs shortly before her death leaves Poirot a letter, and Bob the dog becomes a witness.
