The Murder on the Links,’ first published in 1923, is a complex detective story by Agatha Christie, an English author best known for her 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections, especially those featuring fictional detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple.
Hercule Poirot, Agatha Christie’s brilliant detective, returns to find his would-be employer murdered, too many suspects, and the detective directing the local police investigation ignoring his polished investigative technique. The two butt heads compete to solve the case until a second body is discovered, murdered in the same manner as the first.
Poirot’s razor-sharp perception and in-depth knowledge of criminal history are required to connect both murders as he successfully works toward an unanticipated conclusion.
