After The Funeral by Agatha Christie in Paperback

 

When a wealthy Victorian mansion owner dies unexpectedly, his sister firmly believes it was not an accident. However, her fears are confirmed when she is brutally killed with a hatchet, which makes her cryptic comment at her brother's funeral the day before all the more haunting. During the reading of the will, Cora's words echo in the room: 'It's been hushed up very nicely, hasn't it...But he was murdered, wasn't he?' With no other options, the family lawyer enlists the help of Hercule Poirot to uncover the truth behind the murder.
