Did the French maid make off with Mrs. Opalsen's pearls?
Nah. That would be too easy, right?
When Poirot and Hasting run into a wealthy couple who have a love for jewels, they also run into sneaky-ass jewel thieves. Can they stop them before a (maybe?) innocent woman goes to jail for a crime she didn't commit?
Well, if Poirot is on the case, then the answer is yes.
This was first published in 1923 in The Sketch magazine as The Curious Disappearance of the Opalsen Pearls. In that same year, it was published in the US in The Blue Book Magazine under the title Mrs. Opalsen's Pearls.
Read as part of the short story collection The Early Cases of Hercule Poirot
