"This dog is very clever" Poirot says "He must be Belgian!"
A delightful adaptation of another Christie's classic : aptly titled cause the main witness is a dog .But only Poirot can communicate with him.
Mrs Arundell is a wealthy aunt and she has got nephews and nieces waiting for their inheritance .In her desirable mansion,on the bank of a lake where one of the nephews tries to break speed record ,strange things happen.
This is an absorbing episode in the POirot brilliant miniseries involving initials (which might or might not be those of the murderer) ,a dumb witness (Bob the dog) ,and an eerie side -which frequently shows in Christie's books : Emily Arundell's death is almost supernatural ("Her soul is flying away ") and there is a medium who talks to the Dead .
