The Market Basing Mystery: a Hercule Poirot Short Story (Hercule Poirot, #SS-15)

Previously published in the print anthology Poirot's Early Cases. A man has apparently committed suicide, but things are not always as they appear. The housekeeper points out that the gun was in the victim's left hand, yet he was right handed. In Agatha Christies short story, The Market Basing Mystery, Poirot and Hastings are called on to investigate the suspicious death of a landowner in a small English town. What looks at first like a simple case of suicide quickly becomes more complex as Poirot interrogates the suspects in the home.
