| Epigraph |
Sad Cypress: Come away, come away, death
And in sad cypress let me be laid;
Fly away, fly away, breath;
I am slain by a fair cruel maid.
My shroud of white, stuck all with yew,
O prepare it!
My part of death, no one so true
Did share it.
Shakespeare  | |

| Dedication |
Dead Man's Folly: To Humphrey and Peggie Trevelyan To Robert Graves
Dear Robert
Since you are kind enough to say you like my stories. I venture to dedicate this book to you. All I ask is that you should sternly restrain your critical faculties (doubtless sharpened by your recent excesses in that line!) when reading it.
this is a story for your pleasure and NOT a candidate for Mr. Grave's literary pillory!
Your friend
Agatha Christie Towards Zero: To Robert Graves | |

| First words |
The Murder at the Vicarage: It is difficult to know quite where to begin this story, but I have fixed my choice on a certain Wednesday at luncheon at the Vicarage. Murder at the Vicarage:
It is difficult to know quite where to begin this story, but I have fixed my choice on a certain Wednesday at luncheon at the Vicarage. Dead Man's Folly: It was Miss Lemon, Poirot's efficient secretary, who took the telephone call. Sad Cypress: "Elinor Katharine Carlisle." Towards Zero: The group round the fireplace was nearly all composed of lawyers or those who had an interest in the law. N or M?: Tommy Beresford removed his overcoat in the hall of the flat. | |
