The Curtain is a work of detective fiction by Agatha Christie and first published in the UK by the Collins Crime Club in September 1975 and in the US by Dodd, Mead and Company the following month. The book introduces the character of Poirot’s friend and fellow detective, Captain Hastings. It is Christie’s last book, and was unfinished at the time of her death. The unfinished novel was completed by Christie’s daughter, Rosalind Hicks, and published posthumously in 1975.

The novel is set in an isolated country house in England in the late 1940s. Poirot and Hastings are summoned to the house by an old friend, Colonel Johnnie Race, who is dying of cancer. Race believes that someone in the house is trying to kill him and asks Poirot to find the killer before he dies.

The novel features a number of red herrings and false leads, and is notable for its use of Christie’s “locked room” mystery technique. The ending is somewhat abrupt, as Christie died before she was able to finish the book.

Overall, The Curtain is an enjoyable read, although it is not one of Christie’s best works. The mystery is cleverly plotted and the characters are well-drawn
