Hercule Poirot<\/a> and Arthur Hastings.<\/p>\nThe story takes place in northern France, giving Poirot a hostile competitor from the Paris S\u00fbret\u00e9.<\/p>\n
Poirot’s long memory for past or similar crimes proves useful in resolving the crimes.<\/p>\n
The book is notable for a subplot in which Hastings falls in love, a development “greatly desired on Agatha’s part… parcelling off Hastings to wedded bliss in the Argentine.<\/p>\n
