Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
When a young teen is found murdered at a Halloween party, Hercule Poirot is called in by Ariadne Oliver, a mystery writer. She is troubled by something that the girl, who was known for telling tall tales, had said during preparations for the party. The young victim claims to have seen a murder committed, and Poirot is quick to believe that she was dispatched in order for that murder to remain unknown.
Poirot soon sets himself to the task of interviewing a wide cast of the town's inhabitants, raising questions about not only present events, but those in the past that just might be connected to the tragedy. When another, seemingly connected, murder occurs, Poirot knows that he must convince the lawmen in charge that he has fitted the puzzle together correctly.
Hallowe'en Party has all the elements of Agatha Christie's intricately plotted mysteries. With Hercule Poirot serving as the sleuth who steps in to solve the murder, it's quick-paced and filled with a cast of characters who all have something to gain - or to hide.
