A little about the story

A shooting at a hunting lodge sends Hastings to investigate while Poirot directs inquiries from his sickbed.

An isolated setting limits the number of people who could know what happened, but it also means each account carries unusual weight. The story makes a game of the distance between collecting information and understanding it.
