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?

It is evident, early on, that someone is lying, particularly to Poirot and that the lies they relate have a significant impact upon the solving of the case.

Hercule Poirot is once more called to investigate what appears, initially, to be a straightforward case. Jane Wilkinson, an actress, has been seeking a divorce from her husband, Lord Edgware and has called upon the assistance of Poirot to persuade the peer to agree to one.
