A short story by Agatha Christie featuring the duo of Mr. Satterthwaite and the mysterious Mr. Quin.
Confusion reigns when Sir James Dwighton is murdered, and illicit love results in too many confessions. Luckily, his broken clock tells the tale--or does it? It all starts as Mr. Satterthwaite and Colonel Melrose are enjoying an evening in the latter's study and the phone rings. Inspector Curtis is calling Chief Constable Melrose to ask him to come to Alderway immediately. It's murder. Melrose asks Satterthwaite to come along and, after a little fender-bender, Mr. S suggests asking Harley Quin too. Can the trio work it out?
