Is this by any chance prompted by Dr. Who fandom? (Because if so, most any of the titles mentioned in the episode would do.)
Otherwise or if that's too obscure, well, hard to go wrong with anything with the word "Murder" in the title.
Really, if you go to your neighborhood bookstore or library and pick up _anything_ by Christie, you should do ok - the only one to avoid is Curtain, that being definitely a last, not a first. I personally prefer Miss Marple books to Poirot ones, but that's entirely a matter of taste.
I liked them both, for different reasons. The Mysterious Affair at Styles is the first Poirot, I don't remember which is the first Miss Marple, but a couple of my favorites are What Mrs. McGillicuddy saw (which I think has been renamed) or The Mirror Crack'd.
