Sinopse

A long-ago trauma and a family mystery may shed light on her troubled sleep—or pull her into the darkness once and for all . . . As a child, Grace Cooper suffered from bouts of sleepwalking. Now, after the unexpected death of her husband, she’s moved back to Woodburn Cottage, her childhood home—and the sleepwalking returns. It’s all stirring up dark memories—memories that involve the disappearance of her brother Simon, who vanished one night when he was a child, and the death of her father, who fell from an upstairs window. With her mother in a care home with dementia and her sister living in a nearby village, Grace tries to settle in—but with the passage of time, the sleepwalking only becomes more regular and the blurred memories of the past only become more disturbing. Spurred on by these hazy dreamlike recollections, Grace becomes determined to find out what happened to Simon that fateful night. But digging up the past isn’t always a good idea, because you never know what skeletons you might unearth . . .

    “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.

    After recording the last interview of a month-long media extravaganza orchestrated by the brass, NYPD Detectives Chiara Corelli and P. J. Parker are hoping for time out of the spotlight working cold cases and/or solving low profile murders. But the brutal murder of Alessandra Moreau, a singer on track to becoming a superstar, in the living room of New York State Senator Leigh Drayman, a trans woman, is anything but. 
     
     
     
    Besides Drayman, only Moreau's twin sister and her wife knew she was a trans woman, so Corelli and Parker focus their attention on three suspects—the agent/manager stealing from her, a man from her attorney's office who assaulted her, and H, a rejected lover who she fears. 
     
     
     
    And when they find thirteen trans women murdered in exactly the manner as Moreau in just over two years, their focus changes and they enlist the senator's help to get the NYPD to set up a task force. 
     
     
     
    With the murder of two more trans women in New York City, the killer seems to be taunting them. But they are no closer to finding him then they were after Moreau was murdered. 
     
     
     
    As they dig deeper into those early murders, they eliminate suspects and begin to focus on the one with motive, means, and opportunity.
