The German-language edition of the classic detective novel Elephants Can Remember, one of the later works by renowned mystery writer Agatha Christie. The story features Christie's famous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, who is asked to investigate a mysterious double death that occurred many years earlier.

When a young woman becomes engaged, questions resurface about the deaths of her parents, who were found years before at the foot of a cliff in what was ruled a murder-suicide. Poirot, assisted by his longtime friend Ariadne Oliver, begins interviewing elderly witnesses—people Christie humorously refers to as “elephants,” because they remember events from long ago. Through these recollections, Poirot gradually pieces together the truth behind the tragic case.

Originally published in English as Elephants Can Remember, the novel is part of Christie's later Poirot mysteries and centers on the themes of memory, hidden motives, and long-buried secrets.
