Agatha Christie's "Lord Edgware Dies" features the astute Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, his sidekick Arthur Hastings, and Chief Inspector Japp. The story unfolds when the American actress Jane Wilkinson approaches Poirot at a dinner party with a request to convince her estranged husband, Lord Edgware, to grant her a divorce so she can marry the Duke of Merton. Surprisingly, Lord Edgware has already agreed to the divorce, unbeknownst to Jane.
The plot thickens when Lord Edgware is found murdered the next day. Jane Wilkinson has a solid alibi as she was seen at a dinner party at the time of the murder. The mystery deepens with the death of Carlotta Adams, an impressionist who could mimic Jane to perfection, found dead from an overdose the same morning. Poirot delves into a complex web of clues involving a mysterious phone call, a gold case with a misleading inscription, and several potential suspects including Jane's resentful former lover, Bryan Martin, and Edgware’s financially troubled nephew, Ronald Marsh.
Using his impeccable deductive skills, Poirot uncovers that Jane Wilkinson, driven by the motive to marry the duke who would not wed a divorcee, orchestrated a deceptive plan. She employed Carlotta Adams to impersonate her at the dinner party while she herself committed the murder. Moreover, Jane later killed Adams to silence her and manipulated evidence to mislead the investigation.
Poirot's revelation pivots on intricate details like the peculiar inscription on the gold case and a strategic alteration in a letter from Adams. The meticulous detective proves once again that no detail is too small and no act too clever to escape his keen observation. The resolution leaves the audacious actress to face the consequences of her crimes, reflecting on the complexity and darkness of human motives.
