Synopsis

Havoc occurs when European countries are discussing covert alliances. The story revolves around the creation of a secret alliance between Germany, Russia, and Austria. The English hope to split Russia away by holding the Czar to his previous public commitments, but they need proof of what was done to create the pressure. All the pressures that lead to WWI are there, but the intrigues and secret treaties create an interesting background to the twists and turns of the plot of this novel written in 1911.

    “If one man does not make a move, the other must, and by permitting the adversary to make the attack, one learns something about him.” — Hercule Poirot 
    The number 4 
    Scribbled, over and over again. There were tens, maybe even hundreds… all 4’s. 
    A sheet of paper, almost drenched in ink, with only the number 4 written on it — What could it mean? 
    Hercule Poirot was a detective who was good at his job. He was a skilled detective who had come to lament that all his cases thus far were, quite frankly, tame and boring. 
    He wanted an adventure. A thrilling case where he would have no other choice but to risk everything to solve it. 
    And that’s exactly what he’s about to get. 
    Poirot finds himself an uninvited guest, standing at his doorway and absolutely caked in dust. All Poirot could do was exchanged an alarmed look with the mystery man, before the guest collapses on the floor. 
    The only clue was that all the man would utter were Poirot’s name and address, before hastily scribbling out the number 4, again, and again, and again. 
    This collection of short stories by popular English mystery author, Agatha Christie, are about to send you of on a wild goose chase alongside Private Investigator Hercule Poirot. Enter a world full of secrets and espionage and quickly learn that, sometimes, to uncover the truth, you must be willing to risk your life.

    Say hello to Mike Lucifer, Spiritual Consultant. He’s back in town to take care of business. Unfortunately, when business is good, things must be very, very bad. 
     
    After two years trying to run away from his past, Mike Lucifer’s back in his office less than ten minutes when a persistent young woman shows up asking for help: her boyfriend’s been possessed by a demon. 
     
    That’s exactly the kind of mess that drove him from his hometown of Boston to a sunny beach—and the bottom of a bottle—in the first place. But there are some problems that even booze can’t drown, and while Lucifer may be no hero, his dwindling bank account provides a thousand reasons to take the case. 
     
    No sooner is he back in the game then the complications and corpses start to add up. The boyfriend’s not possessed—he’s dead. The tech company where he worked is looking shadier by the second. And Lucifer’s client definitely knows more than she should…about everything. The deeper Lucifer digs, the more he wonders if whatever sinister entity lurks behind this case wants him to be the last to die…

    Spring has sprung, and with it, a full line-up of programming at Larkspur Community Library. Director Greta Plank is preparing to host the Wisconsin Library Organization's annual conference—and dreading the arrival of her ex-boyfriend—while also helping a local treasure-hunting club coordinate a showcase highlighting Northern Wisconsin's gangster trail and the nearby hideouts of the notorious criminals of the early twentieth century. 
     
     
     
    When Greta overhears the library board president and a member of the treasure-hunting club arguing about a secret discovery, her curiosity is piqued—even more so when one of the women leaves a book with a sequence of strange markings on its pages in the library book return bin. Before Greta can ask about the marginalia, the book's outspoken owner turns up dead. 
     
     
     
    At the request of the police—though against the better judgment of her beau, Detective Mark McHenry—Greta sets to work trying to decipher the peculiar notations, and she quickly hypothesizes that there's more to the story. Greta must work against the clock to decode the dead woman's book code. What she finds is someone willing to go to great lengths to keep a secret buried in the stacks—and the past—even if it means killing again.
