1933. Hercule Poirot, older and greyer, receives letters threatening murder. The sender signs themselves only as “A.B.C.” When he takes the letters to the police looking for help, Hercule finds all his old friends have moved on. But soon there is a murder and the once-great detective must take matters into his own hands.
A slow, cold unspooling of dread rather than shock. This is menace by correspondence — each letter tightening the air before violence arrives, set against a Britain souring into suspicion. Malkovich's weary, diminished detective makes the fear intimate: you feel the creep of irrelevance as keenly as the killer's patience.
