Murder by the Book

The renowned Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is found murdered, leaving the world to wonder if his own remarkable mind was responsible for the crime.

Dame Agatha Christie's agents propose publishing a long-forgotten manuscript, in which she finally kills off her famous creation, Hercule Poirot. Christie sees this as a chance to be rid of the "wretched little man" who has been a troublemaker for her. However, Poirot himself appears at her doorstep, sparking a game of cat and mouse between the detective and his creator, with both fighting for the manuscript and their own survival.
