Poirot receives a visit from Miss Mary Marvell, the famous Belgian film star on her visit to London. She has received three letters, handed to her by a Chinese man, which warn her to return her fabulous diamond jewel, the "Western Star," to where it came from - the left eye of an idol - before the next full moon. Her husband, Gregory Rolf, who bought it from a Chinese man in San Francisco, gave Mary the jewel three years ago.
