This intriguing mystery that stars the eccentric and fastidious Inspector Hercule Poirot takes place amidst a scientific excavation probing secrets from the dawn of history in the fabled land of Babylon (now known as Iraq). Everyone who visits the site comes away with the same impression -- an eerie tension, a sense that something is "not right." Louise Leidner, bride of the expedition leader, is afraid of something. Is she simply having "nervous terrors and fancies?" Nurse Amy Leatheran, brought in to help Mrs. Leidner, finds that she is terribly frightened by a man she claims has stalked her across the globe. No one at the excavation believes her until she turns up bludgeoned to death. Poirot, nearby on another mission, gets involved and conducts an investigation into Louise's murder. He concludes that the killer must be part of the archeological dig - but who? And then the plot thickens as another female member of the expedition is killed in a most gruesome way! Poirot unravels the crimes with all the genius that his reputation has led us to expect.
Nurse Amy Leatheran had never felt the lure of the 'mysterious East,' but she nonetheless accepts an assignment at Hassanieh, an ancient site deep in the Iraqi desert, to care for the wife of a celebrated archaeologist. Mrs Leidner is suffering bizarre visions and nervous terror. 'I'm afraid of being killed!' she admits to her nurse. Her terror, unfortunately, is anything but unfounded, and Nurse Leatheran is soon enough without a patient. The world's greatest detective happens to be in the vicinity, however: having concluded an assignment in Syria, and curious about the dig at Hassanieh, Hercule Poirot arrives in time to lead a murder investigation that will tax even his remarkable powers -- and in a part of the world that has seen more than its share of misadventure and foul play.

The Queen of Mystery has come to Harper Collins! Agatha Christie, the acknowledged mistress of suspense--creator of indomitable sleuth Miss Marple, meticulous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, and so many other unforgettable characters--brings her entire oeuvre of ingenious whodunits, locked room mysteries, and perplexing puzzles to Harper Paperbacks. Suspicious events at a Middle Eastern archaeological excavation site intrigue the great Poirot as he investigates Murder in Mesopotamia.
Nurse Amy Leatheran was traveling in Iraq when she met Dr. Leidner, who asked her to join an archaeological dig to look after his wife who has been frightened by ghostly appearances and threatening letters. Mrs. Leidner confides to Amy that she had received similar threatening letters several years before that were supposedly from her dead first husband. The letters arrived every time she would go out with a new man, and stopped when she broke off the relationship. No letters arrived when she met and then married Dr. Leidner, so Mrs. Leidner assumed they were written by some crackpot who had either died or lost interest in her. Though her charge's story is disconcerting, Amy isn't particularly worried for herself -- until Mrs. Leitner is found dead in her room where she's been struck on the head with a large blunt object. Fortunately, Hercule Poirot is visiting the excavation site, but will the great detective be in time to prevent a murderer from striking again?
