Halloween Party HC (2008 Harper) Agatha Christie Adventures comic books 1980 or later

1st printing. Story by Agatha Christie. Adapted and illustrated by Chandre. To help make this year's halloween a night to remember, Mrs Drake throws a party for all the youngsters in the village. But one hostile teenager gets so caught up in the theme of the evening that she claims to have witnessed a murder. Nobody takes her seriously, of course, until the girl is silenced - permanently. Why would anyone want to eliminate such a young witness? Unless it was to hide an even more terrible crime? Halloween Party, an investigation for Hercule Poirot written in 1969, includes the appearance of his apple-munching sidekick, the crime writer Mrs Ariadne Oliver, and is brought to life by Chandre, who has also adapted Ordeal by Innocence and Murder in Mesopotamia for this series. Hardcover, 52 pages, full color.
