Meurtre au soleil (1982)
Sur le point d’épouser la belle Arlena, une actrice, Horace Blatt lui a fait présent d’un bijou de grande valeur. Mais, la fiancée a rompu sa promesse et rendu le cadeau. Peu après, Blatt découvre qu’il n’a plus qu’un faux en sa possession. Hercule Poirot accepte de récupérer le vrai bijou. Il se rend donc sur la petite île de l’Adriatique où Arlena, devenue entre‐temps madame Marshall, doit bientôt séjourner. Il découvre dans son hôtel toute une collection de personnages plus ou moins insignifiants qui se connaissent et qui ont tous une bonne raison d’en vouloir mortellement à Arlena. Celle‐ci ne tarde pas, d’ailleurs, à être assassinée…
