Después del Funeral / After the Funeral


Overview

Dos asesinatos. Una jugosa herencia. Una familia en la que todos son sospechosos. Tras la muerte inesperada del millonario Richard Abernethie, su familia se reúne para leer el testamento: los bienes se repartirán entre los integrantes a partes iguales, aunque algunos no parecen satisfechos con este acuerdo. Cuando Cora, la hermana de Richard, asegura que este ha sido asesinado, todos lo atribuyen a su excéntrico carácter y no le dan importancia. Sin embargo, al día siguiente Cora es brutalmente asesinada, y sus palabras toman un nuevo matiz. Cada uno de los integrantes tenía una razón para quedarse con su parte de la herencia y ninguno tiene una coartada convincente. ¿Quién ganaba más con las dos muertes? Hércules Poirot se encargará de resolver este crimen en el que las apariencias engañan. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Two murders. A juicy inheritance. A family in which everyone is a suspect. After the unexpected death of millionaire Richard Abernethie, his family gathers to hear the will: the estate will be divided equally among the members, though some are not satisfied with this arrangement. When Cora, Richard's sister, claims that he was murdered, everyone dismisses it as part of her eccentric nature. However, the next day Cora is brutally killed, and her words take on a new meaning. Each family member had a motive to claim their share of the inheritance, and none has a convincing alibi. Who stood to gain the most from the two deaths? Hercule Poirot will take charge of solving this crime where appearances are deceiving.

Author Information

Nacida en Torquay en 1891, Agatha Christie recibió la típica educación victoriana impartida por institutrices en el hogar paterno. Tras la muerte de su padre, se trasladó a París, donde estudió piano y canto. Contrajo matrimonio en 1914 y tuvo una hija, pero su matrimonio terminó en divorcio en 1928. Dos años después, durante un viaje por Oriente Medio conoció al arqueólogo Max Mallowan, con quien se casó ese mismo año; a partir de entonces pasó varios meses al año en Siria e Irak, escenario de Ven y dime cómo vives y de alguna de sus novelas policiacas, como Asesinato en Mesopotamia o Intriga en Bagdad. Además del gran éxito de que disfrutaron sus célebres novelas, a partir de 1953 ganó celebridad con las adaptaciones teatrales de sus novelas en el West End londinense. En 1971 le fue concedida la distinción de Dame of the British Empire. Murió en 1976. Born in Torquay in 1891, Agatha Christie received the typical Victorian education provided by governesses at her parents' home. After her father's death, she moved to Paris, where she studied piano and singing. She married in 1914 and had a daughter, but her marriage ended in divorce in 1928. Two years later, during a trip to the Middle East, she met the archaeologist Max Mallowan, whom she married that same year; from then on, she spent several months a year in Syria and Iraq, the setting for Come, Tell Me How You Live (Andanzas 50, now also in the Fábula collection) and some of her detective novels, such as Murder in Mesopotamia and They Came to Baghdad. Besides the great success of her famous novels, starting in 1953, she gained fame with the theatrical adaptations of her novels in London's West End. In 1971, she was awarded the distinction of Dame of the British Empire. She died in 1976.
