A dentist lies murdered at his Harley Street practice The dentist was found with a blackened hole below his right temple A pistol lay on the floor near his outflung right hand Later one of his patients was found dead from a lethal dose of local anaesthetic A clear case of murder & suicide But why would a dentist commit a crime in the middle of a busy day of appointments? A shoe buckle holds the key to the mystery Now
- in the words of the rhyme
- can Poirot pick up the sticks & lay them straight?
