Les travaux d’Hercule

The Greek hero Hercules accomplished twelve labors, and here are half a dozen of them, but it is not the son of Zeus we follow: it is Hercule Poirot. The famous Belgian detective may lack the demigod’s physique, but his little grey cells are in fine working order to solve a dozen fiendish puzzles, from a London gang that kidnaps Pekingese dogs to the deadliest monster of all, slander. Brilliantly elucidated mysteries from the queen of crime.
