Hastings ei pidä yhtään Poirotin eläköitymis-puheista ja ehdottaakin lyhyttä lomaa Luoteis-Englannissa. Retkellä Lake Windemereen Hastings ihastuu seurueessa mukana olevaan Mary Durrentiin. Tämä uskoutuu Hastingsille kertoen, että hänellä on arvokas kokoelma muinaisesineitä, jotka hän aikoo myydä asiakkaalle. Kun esineet varastetaan retken aikana ottaa Hastings komennon. (SF Film Fin.)

I guess I was a bit disappointed that it was somewhat simpler and I figured out the point quite early, but that definitely doesn't mean this installment wasn't entertaining. On the contrary, there's a great moment between Poirot and Japp, of which the latter isn't even aware. This turned out really well, just like Poirot's indifference. Even in the background, he's perfect.

In Double Sin, it is Captain Hastings who uncharacteristically takes up the investigation of the case, while Poirot pretends to be retired, for which he has his own (somewhat ulterior) reasons – but even so, the grey cells of his brain do not rest, as Miss Lemon, searching for her lost keys, could tell you. And it doesn't really matter that there's no murder in this episode, because a simple heist can be just as attractive and well-executed.
