Lontoon tunnetussa Burlington Arcadessa mies varastaa kourallisen jalokiviä ja häipyy. Samanaikaisesti tylsistynyt Poirot mietiskelee tulevansa mestaririkolliseksi. Poirot tapaa Lady Millicent Castle Vaughin hänen toivomuksestaan. Lady on menossa naimisiin Southshiren herttuan kanssa, mutta ongelmana on hänen entinen rakastettunsa joka kiristää häntä. Poirot saa haluamansa tekosyyn rikollisille mielihaluilleen ja tekee murron kiristäjäksi epäillyn asuntoon. (SF Film Fin.)

The Veiled Lady is one of the most humane cases in which even a great detective tries his hand at being a "criminal", but in a positive sense. The result, then, is an imaginative game of disguises and role-playing that keeps the suspense (and humour) from beginning to end. It was amusing to see Poirot without his traditionally groomed moustache and still riding his bike, plus I liked the slightly tweaked musical theme.

From the beginning, it was somewhat clear who would actually be the villain, but how the whole story unfolded is just interesting enough to captivate and make one endure until the end. The chase in the museum is quite entertaining, and I must say that I really like how the setting constantly changes in the series. It suits Poirot well.
