ISBN: 9780007190676.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA brand new POIROT omnibus, featuring the first five appearances of the detectives side-kick, the sleuthing crime novelist Ariadne Oliver: Cards on the Table, Mrs McGintys Dead, Dead Mans Folly, and the short stories The Case of the Discontented Soldier and The Case of the Rich Woman. Hercule Poirot and Ariadne Oliver were an unilkely combination -- a world-famous detective who dealt with fact and a prolific crime writer who dealt with fantasy. But their paths crossed six times, and Mrs Oliver was to become one of Poirots staunchest allies. Cards on the Table Ariadne Oliver makes her first appearance in Poirots life when they attend a bridge party in which the host is silently murdered in full view of a roomful of guests. Mrs McGintys Dead After 16 years, Mrs Oliver re-enters Poirots life when an old widow is murdered in the parlour of her cottage. Dead Mans Folly A murder hunt is staged for charity, but alarmingly turns into the real thing when Poirot and Mrs Oliver have to face up to their first case of a child murder. The Case of the Discontented Soldier and The Case of the Rich Woman are two bonus stories in which Mrs Oliver makes an appearance alongside the private eye Christopher Parker Pyne.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Children's Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44977002905653,"sku":"ByrdShop_0007190670","price":93.22,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780007190676_a914d32c-4fa7-49d4-aef0-bf24a8e9ea7e.jpg?v=1778918028","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/poirot-the-complete-ariadne-oliver-vol-1-9780007190676","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
