The Gentleman Dressed in Newspaper

De: Agatha Christie

Narrado por: Peter Coates

The Gentleman Dressed in Newspaper is a short story written by Agatha Christie which was first published in The Sketch in October 1924.

During a lull in business, Tommy and Tuppence amuse themselves by perusing the paper's personal columns. One cryptic ad reads, "Three hearts … 12 tricks … Ace of Spades … finesse the King." Tommy is certain it is a secret message indicating a crime about to be committed.

Love Agatha Christie Stories but can not recommend

I have read, reread, and listened to just about all things by Agatha Christie. I was surprised to find this version of a story I know, so I bought it. The voice sounds like AI to me. Perhaps it was originally in another language? I have no idea, but the English male voice telling this story does not sound like a "live" person. Didn't enjoy this version at all.

The End

The story, plot, and execution of the crime were deliciously designed, marvelously framed, and delightfully rendered. Only Agatha’s imagination could produce a story such as this.
