Description
Witness for the Prosecution and Other Stories is a collection of eleven tantalizing tales of murder and other criminal pursuits--including the classic title story, the basis for the 1957 Oscar-nominated Billy Wilder film. A murder trial takes a diabolical turn when the wife of the accused takes the stand... A woman's sixth sense--and a loaded revolver--signal premonitions of doom... A stranded motorist seeks refuge in a remote mansion and is greeted with a dire warning... Detective Hercule Poirot faces his greatest challenge when his services are enlisted--by the victim--in a bizarre locked-room murder. From the stunning title story to the rarest gems in detective fiction, these eleven tales of baffling crime and brilliant deduction showcase Agatha Christie at her dazzling best.
