An outbrak of kleptomania at a student hostel was not normally the sort of crime that aroused Hercule Poirot's interest. Then he saw the list of stolen and vandalized items, which included a stethoscope, some old flannel trousers, a box of chocolates, a slashed rucksack and a diamond ring found in a bowl of soup. He congratulated the warden, Mrs Hubbard , on a 'unique and beautiful problem'. The list made absolutely no sense at all, but if this was merely a petty thief at work, why was everyone at the hostel so frightened ?
