A doctor on board is inclined to put it down to a wasp-sting, but Poirot suspects that a poisoned dart is the real cause - and, perhaps rather too conveniently, a blow pipe is discovered stuffed down the back of his seat. Clearly the murder can only have been committed by one of the passengers or crew on the plane.

Every death adds another legend. Every resurrection adds another fee. Joshua doesn't want to change history. He just wants to survive long enough to stop accidentally becoming part of it.
