    “Book Descriptions: Waiting for his car to be fixed, Mr. Satterthwaite sits in a tea shop called the Harlequin Café. He's thinking of his old friend Harley Quin whom he hasn’t seen in many years. Then, in a burst of sunshine, the very same Mr. Quin walks through the door, along with his diligent dog, Hermes!

    Satterthwaite tells Quin the very long history of the family he is off to visit. But then their conversation is interrupted by the abrupt entrance of a member of the family. She is intent upon replacing her harlequin-style tea cups. Satterthwaite desperately asks Quin to accompany him on his trip, but the ever-enigmatic Quin simply leaves his friend with one word, “Daltonism.” What does that word mean, and what is the significance of Quin turning up at the tea shop on that day?

    Librarian's note: the story was first published in a collection of short stories 'Winter Crimes #3' in 1971. It was one of eight Christie stories in 'Problem at Pollensa Bay' which came out in 1991.”
