A Spider’s Web

Clarissa, the charming wife of a diplomat, is adept at spinning tales of adventure, but when a murder takes place in her drawing room, she finds live drama much harder to cope with.

Desperate to dispose of the body before her husband arrives with an important politician, she enlists the help of her guests. Hilarity ensues with the arrival of a wry detective. Christie delivers suspense and humor in equal parts with secret drawers, hidden doors, and invisible ink.
