After Mr. St. Vincent's death, his family is plunged into poverty. Living in reduced circumstances, they are surprised to find an elegant townhouse--with staff--for a suspiciously cheap rent. Why would Lord Listerdale lend them his home for such a low price, and why are the servants so accommodating?
"Twelve tantalising cases... the curious disappearance of Lord Listerdale; a newlywed's fear of her ex-fiancé; a strange encounter on the train; a domestic murder investigation; a mild man's sudden personality change; a retired inspector's hunt for a murderess; a young woman's impersonation of a duchess; a necklace hidden in a basket of cherries; a mystery writers arrest for murder; an astonishing marriage proposal; a soprano's hatred for a baritone; and the case of the Rajah's emerald."
"Douze excellentes nouvelles (1934) qui sont plutôt d'étranges faits divers que des histoires criminelles. A paru dans la même collection sous le titre "Douze nouvelles"."

"Twelve tantalising cases - the curious disappearance of Lord Listerdale; a newlywed's fear of a former admirer; a strange encounter on a train; a domestic murder investigation; a mild man's sudden personality change; a retired inspector's hunt for a murderess; a woman's impersonation of a duchess; a necklace hidden in a basket of cherries; a mystery writer's arrest for murder; an astonishing marriage proposal; the case of the Rajah's emerald; and a soprano's hatred for a baritone. All have one thing in common - the skilful hand of Agatha Christie."
