Suspenseful!

I think I liked this Agatha Christy mystery so much because I figured this one out before the end.

Short and Sweet

Great shorter listen. I predicted the ending about half way through but everything tied together nicely. Christie never disappoints.

CLASSIC CHRISTIE SURPRISE ENDING

Hugh Fraser as always does a great job as story teller. The Character development could have been better but still a good read.

The narrater is perfect. Favorite Agatha book ever.

I literally have listened to this book 4-5 times. It is, in my opinion, Agatha’s best book.
