- my tribute to Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot To those of you who aren't acquainted with any of Agatha Christie's Hercule Poirot novels or if you have not seen any of the movies/TV series on Poirot, this page may have little meaning to you. I have compiled a character sketch of Christie's best character - the eccentric little Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot. Perhaps this is a good way to 'get to know him' before delving into one of the books he appears in. However, those of you who are familiar with this little treasure, enjoy.
