At an auction, Hercule Poirot wants to buy an old mirror. Art dealer Gervase Chevenix outbids him for it, then offers Poirot the mirror if he will investigate a case... Chevenix believes he is being cheated by an architect, John Lake... Mrs Chevenix claims her spirit guide, an ancient Egyptian called Saphra, has warned her of an imminent death. There is a disputed will, a second unsigned will, the sound of shots behind locked doors, an apparent suicide which Poirot suspects is murder... Do not go out of the room, or you will lose the plot.
