Twelve labors. Twelve mysteries. Hercule Poirot, the meticulous master of deduction, finds himself challenged not only by the intricacies of crime, but by a playful comparison to the mythical Hercules. Though retirement beckons, the little Belgian, ever the showman, conceives a grand finale: twelve cases, each a reflection of the legendary hero's trials. From vanished poets to brutal killers, from cults shrouded in secrecy to political intrigue, Poirot's final acts span the spectrum of human transgression. Each case, a carefully crafted puzzle, tests his legendary "little grey cells" to their limits. What hidden connections link these seemingly disparate crimes? Can Poirot, like Hercules before him, triumph over these modern-day monsters and emerge victorious? The stage is set for a dazzling display of intellect and a final, masterful flourish from the world's greatest detective.
