Poslije sprovoda

Agatha Christie

The story begins after the death of wealthy Richard Abernethie, whose inheritance attracts the attention of his relatives.

At the funeral, Richard's sister Cora Gallaccio casually suggests that Richard may have been murdered, causing shock among those present. When Cora is brutally murdered with an axe soon after, suspicions deepen. The family's lawyer Entwhistle, alarmed by the possibility of a crime, hires Poirot to investigate. Using his legendary powers of deduction, Poirot uncovers a complex web of motives among the heirs - from financial hardship to hidden envy and old grudges. Set in a large country house, Christie masterfully builds tension through dialogue and subtle clues. The novel explores themes of greed, family conflict and masked malice, as Poirot uncovers lies and manipulation, leading to an unexpected denouement. It has been praised for its clever plot and compelling characters, along with Christie's signature style of combining psychological depth with detective intrigue.
