Agatha Christie. Crime Collection. 4.50 From Paddington. Lord Edgware Dies. Murder In Mesopotamia

4:50 From Paddington - (Miss Marple, Bk 7) aka (USA): What Mrs McGillicuddy Saw = Elspeth McGillicuddy, an old friend of Jane Marple, comes to meet Jane from Scotland. While travelling by train, Elspeth sees a murder occurring in a train on a parallel track. Since she could not have seen the victim or the killer and she is an old woman, the police ignore her. Only Jane believes her, but can she prove anything when there is not even a dead body present?.<br/><br/>Lord Egdware Dies - (Hercule Poirot, book 8) also known as: Thirteen at Dinner = Poirot had been present when Jane bragged of her plan to 'get rid of' her estranged husband. Now the monstrous man was dead. And yet the great Belgian detective couldn't help feeling that he was being taken for a ride. After all, how could Jane have stabbed Lord Edgware to death in his library at exactly the same time she was seen dining with friends? And what could be her motive now that the aristocrat had finally granted her a divorce?<br/><br/>Murder in Mesopotamia - (Hercule Poirot, Bk 14) ="I have arrived", said the note. Louise Leidner claimed the writer had followed her halfway around the world and was now coming to kill her. But the others on the dig in Iraq thought the archeologist's wife was suffering from hysteria...until she was found bludgeoned in her bedroom.
