Hastings and Poirot are playing Monopoly when they are interrupted by Lord Pearson, the elegant Chairman of the London and Shanghai Bank. The banker asks them to investigate the disappearance of a Mr Ling - a highly-valued customer who before he went missing had arranged to sell Lord Pearson a map showing the location of a long-lost silver mine. Ling is found cuddled, a young stockbroker is implicated, and Poirot has to untangle a complicated plot.
Agatha Christie's Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot lives in London with Captain Hastings. Together, they range about Europe encountering cuddle mysteries. The series has strong story lines, good production and acting, and an unmistakable flavor of the pre-war years.
