Mother is brutally murdered. Damning evidence incriminates the son. Awaiting trial, he is murdered.
A few years later, Father prepares to remarry a bossy, trophy wife. The other children live unhappy lives.
Then the stranger arrives, with testimony that profoundly upsets everyone.
Nicely turned adaptation of Agatha Christie mystery is a devil of deception.
The spotlight of whodunit focuses on one after another.
Mother, it seems, was a right piece of work.
Beautifully shot three-parter, though the chilly tone may put some viewers off.
Irresistible for Christie fans.
