Hercule Poirot Mystery

What is the title of Poirot mystery where the murderer "does not kill someone?
I remember vaguely a Hercule Poirot mystery where the murderer "does not commit a single murder, but he manipulates others to commit murder. I think Hastings is a niece or a parent who also appears on it. Does anyone remember the title? Thanks in advance!
Ah, hell, I think it was the last book of Poirot, Poirot knows because if man is responsible for the law can do nothing respect. Rideau was the title. Does that sound right? I found a synopsis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtain_ (novel), Hasting's daughter has a role to play.

Agatha Christie Collection featuring Peter Ustinov as Hercule Poirot (Dead Man’s Folly / Murder in Three Acts / Thirteen at Dinner) $23.99 Before the suave David Suchet, there was the imposing, twinkly Peter Ustinov as Agatha Christie’s unflappable Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot. Ustinov’s Poirot, who appeared in several TV films of Christie’s works in the mid-’80s, is not as metrosexual as Suchet’s. He plays Poirot as world-weary and ever-so-slightly rumpled–despite the jaunty upturned trademark mustache. Thirteen for Dinner fe… |
