The Maharaja's Last Secret | Full Episode

When Hercule Poirot is summoned to Rajapur House — a storm-lashed Victorian manor perched on the cliffs of Cornwall — he expects a historical curiosity. What he finds is something far more dangerous. Sir Alistair Hawthorne has unearthed a sealed iron chest containing the long-lost correspondence of Maharaja Arvind Singh, a man who died under mysterious circumstances thirty years ago. With him: a brilliant archaeologist, a sceptical cousin, a watchful Indian historian, a nervous secretary, and a housekeeper whose grandmother witnessed something in a crypt that no one has ever been able to explain. The Moon of Rajapur — a legendary diamond — is missing. A shadow has been seen again on the cliffs. And someone has been oiling the lock to the crypt. As the storm closes in and secrets buried for three decades begin to surface, Poirot must untangle history, deception, and a ghost story that may not be a ghost story at all. Dim the lights. Pour yourself a tisane. And exercise your little grey cells.
