Parker Pyne Investigates

A Parker Pyne Collection

De: Agatha Christie

Narrado por: Hugh Fraser

Mrs. Packington felt alone, helpless, and utterly forlorn. But her life changed when she stumbled upon an advertisement in the Times that read: "Are you happy? If not, consult Mr. Parker Pyne."

Equally adept at putting together the fragments of a murder mystery or the pieces of a broken marriage, Mr. Parker Pyne is possibly the world's most unconventional private investigator. Armed with just his intuitive knowledge of human nature, he is an Englishman abroad, traveling the globe to solve and undo crime and misdemeanor.

excellent narration

These short stories had just the right amount of mystery and kept you hanging until the end!

hugh fraser

as hastings or narrating parker Payne investigates lovely, wish he had done more in Hercule Poirot complete short stories as in certain stories in collection did not sound like him, but he has nice voice.

enjoyable listen

Really enjoyed the collection of short stories .... nice to finish if you don't have the time for a long listen. Narration was good . Easy to distinguish the different characters . Lots of unexpected endings !

Ineresting listen

Hugh Fraser's narration makes every book better. This short story collection featuring Parker Pyne was a departure from the usual Poirot or Miss Marple and made for an interesting listen.

Fun!

Short stories. Different kind of detective in the first bunch of them. Keeps his uniqueness in the last couple of more traditional mystery stories. Enjoyed very much.

Super

This is by far the most fun I've had with Agatha Christie! It is a bit predictable, but really entertaining.

Yay 🙌

Loved it! Bravissimo!!! Couldn't turn it off! Had to listen from start to finish in one day!

Parker pyne is not endearing

Parker pyne is a new character to me. while the story lines are intriguing and even surprising, the character of Parker was poorly developed. I did not have a good sense of his underlying personality or motivations. Hugh Fraser did a phenomenal job, as usual, and brought these stories to life.

I wish there was more of Parker Pyne!

I love the way Parker Pyne thinks. The narration is terrific and many of the stories are hilarious. If there were more counselors like Mr. Pyne, the world would be a better place. My only beef is that there isn’t more to go around!

Love Agatha Christie

Excellent narrative of the usual great Agatha Christie story. Worthy of a re- listen at a later date and time.
