   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.02 sec.

Poirot, Hercule

Fictional Belgian detective who appears in Agatha Christie's first crime novel The Mysterious Affair at Styles (1920) and in 32 subsequent mysteries.

Known for his inflated ego, vanity, and charm, Poirot exercises his ‘little grey cells’ to solve the most convoluted criminal plots, for example those of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (1926) and Murder on the Orient Express (1934).
