Madame Giselle Found Dead On The Plane
The second most important event to me in the book is the first event, where Madame Giselle was Found Dead on the Plane. This The second most important event to me is the first event. This event is important because it is the start of the case in the story. The purpose of this story is to explain how Poirot and the other detectives work together to solve this case. Without this event, where Madame Giselle is dead, there will be no case for Poirot and the other detectives to solve. In other words, the entire story won't happen without this event. However, this event isn't the climax of the book, where the case is solved. That's why I choose to rank it as second.

The most important event for me in the book is the ninth event. In this event, Anne's death has caused the clues in Poirot's mind to connect together. Which then leads to solving the case. In other words, Poirot won't solve the case successfully without this event. In the previous events, Poirot has no new clues to

This event describes how Poirot, a passenger who was placed to observe his fellow air passengers on the plane, had spied a poison-tipped dart fired from a blowgun. The dart's tip matched with the mark on Madame Giselle's neck. It was apparent that the victim has been murdered by a passenger on the plane. This event, like the first event, has caused Poirot to start the case. What's different, is that the first event is the cause of the story. The third event is more of pushing Poirot into solving the case, like how he has found out that Madame Giselle is murdered by a dart. I've placed it as third because this event is only pushing the main character into his action. It's not as important as the first and ninth event. But without this event, where Poirot has discovered that Madame Giselle is murdered by a dart. There will still be no case for Poirot to solve. Indeed, this event is important in leading to the climax of the

    The most exciting part of the book is the accusation. After a relaxing picnic on the moors, everyone returned to news that Linda Marshall had overdosed on sleeping pills; they all gathered in the lounge to await news of her condition. As Hercule Poirot sat there, he began piecing together all the new information he had, matching them to the clues until finally, he had a series of events that fit in perfectly with all the information. At first he began talking about Linda. He knew why she blamed herself and knew she wasn’t the killer but kept on explaining how she could have done it. Her alibi wasn’t very strong, the size of her hands were similar to the strangulation marks, and she had the strength to do it. Furthermore, he went as far as reminding everyone that Linda’s late biological mother was once tried for murder. After that, he moved onto the possibility that she confessed to shield someone else who was one of the prime suspects in the case: her dad, Kenneth Marshall. Since Kenneth had a strong alibi, Poirot had to…

    Event #1, titled: ‘Deciding to Escape’, is the most important event in the story. This event introduces the conflict and starts off the story. In ‘Deciding to Escape’, we learn that Connor knows he is going to be unwound. Connor decides to run away with Ariana, but Ariana refuses the offer. Without the first event happening, the rest of the book wouldn’t have happened or would have been changed dramatically. For example, if Ariana didn’t suggest they run away, than Connor might have never thought of the idea and became an AWOL, then meet Risa and Lev. The significance of this occurrence is incredibly important. We meet the main character, his situation and we are introduced to the concept of unwinding. Without the first bit of the book, the readers wouldn’t have understood anything that came later on in the book and wouldn’t have understood why Connor decided to run away.…

    These characters, using all of their skills and wits, catches the murderer nevertheless. Over the course of this murder adventure, their actions change the plot of the story. If Poirot was not a good detective, the Clarke could have gotten away. If Cust wasn’t so self-blaming, then maybe he would have caught on faster and realized who was the true murderer. All of these “if”s only lead to different scenario, none quite the same as the original plot. All in all, this book ABC Mystery shows that the character's actions shape the story’s…

    Now I can see why people would say act III scene I is the most important scene. Because if it had not happened, than Romeo would not have been banished and Juliet would not have pretended to die.

    Next to Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple are two of the most recognizable detectives in fiction because of their distinctive attributes. Hercule Poirot, the Belgian detective, is noted for moustaches and his “egg-shaped head”. From the rather violent village of St. Mary Mead, Miss Jane Marple is known for her knitting needles. A third detective, Ariadne Oliver, is an author with a fondness for apples. Interestingly, the last character is also thought to be the Christie’s alter ego. Through her characters, Christie is able to express her own views on the social issues of her time.…

    In the Lake of the Woods

    Like many stories, the novel is not presented in chronological order. Even as the narrator jumps from past to present to evidence to hypotheses, the sections are not always continuous individually. O’Brien utilizes this method because the story was not written to develop the life of John Wade, but rather to examine it as it relates to the past that he tried to conceal from the election and his wife. Each piece of evidence serves to further expand the elements that tainted John Wade and provide possibilities to the case of his missing wife. The hypotheses are an explanation of the story that also maintains the mystery in the novel because they never provide a concise ending. In the beginning, these chapters are confusing, but they help the reader see the main plot in greater depth. The significance of the events is more indicative than the order of the events.…
