Dodd, Mead and Company, 1969. Book club edition hardcover with dust jacket of Hallowe'en Party by Agatha Christie.

A teenage murder witness is drowned in a tub of apples. At a Hallowe'en party, Joyce, a hostile thirteen-year-old, boasts that she once witnessed a murder. When no-one believes her, she storms off home. But within hours her body is found, still in the house, drowned in an apple-bobbing tub.

That night, Hercule Poirot is called in to find the 'evil presence.' But first he must establish whether he is looking for a murderer or a double-murderer!

Very Good. A crisp book club edition with light shelf wear.
