The court. Faces. Rows and rows of faces! One particular face with a big black moustache and shrewd eyes. Hercule Poirot, his head a little on one side, his eyes thoughtful, was watching her. She thought: He’s trying to see just exactly why I did it… He’s trying to get inside my head to see what...
