Inspector Hardcastle and Colin Lamb provide the impetus in this one. Poirotretired but not too tiredhas been perusing detective novels and applying them to his experience. When he is contacted by his friend, Lamb, he enters the picture late and merely from an armchair. Thus, from behind the scene, he solves this simple yet baffling case. Look for quotes from Alice Through the Looking Glass as hints as to the solution. Rather good except for the usual Poirot solution.
