Two Best-Selling Agatha Christie Novels in One Great Audiobook

The Secret Adversary

From the brilliant pen of Agatha Christie comes the first novel in her Tommy and Tuppence mystery series featuring the beloved sleuthing duo - now a movie on both Acorn TV and PBS.

Tommy and Tuppence are young, in love...and flat broke. Restless for excitement, they decide to embark on a daring business scheme: Young Adventurers Ltd. - "willing to do anything, go anywhere." But they get more than they bargained for when their first assignment for the sinister Mr. Whittington draws them into a diabolical conspiracy.

It isn’t long before they find themselves plunged into more danger than they ever could have imagined - a danger that could put an abrupt end to their business...and their lives.

And Then There Were None

A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick

One of the most famous and beloved mysteries from the queen of suspense, Agatha Christie! More than 100 million copies sold and now a Lifetime TV movie.

Ten people, each with something to hide and something to fear, are invited to a isolated mansion on Indian Island by a host, who, surprisingly, fails to appear. On the island, they are cut off from everything but each other and the inescapable shadows of their own past lives. One by one, the guests share the darkest secrets of their wicked pasts. And one by one, they die.... Which among them is the killer, and will any of them survive?

Christie Times Two

I found 'The Secret Adversary ' a bit dull, but, 'And Than There Were None' was Christie at her best.

Both are fantastic!

First time reading The Secret Adversary, and I loved it!

And Then There Were None is one of my absolute favourites. A terrifying, and brilliant thriller, I always come back to this one.

Both stories were riveting!

Agatha Christie keeps my attention every time! I cannot wait to read her great stuff again!

Classics, but delightful for a re-read

I've read and listened to both of these a number of times over the years and just love a good Agatha Christie mystery. I think this is the first time I've heard the updated version of And Then There Were None. I knew the title had changed and I think the edits do nothing to detract from the story.

I enjoyed both performances; Hugh Fraser is delightful and the classic voice of Christie audiobooks. I love listening to his southing tones! Dan Stevens did a very nice job with all the voices of the numerous characters. I was very impressed by how well each voice fit the character. This will definitely be listened to again!

Two great reads/listens

Well worth the time & cost. I will definitely share these and listen to them again

Another great add to my collection!

I’ve been reading Agatha Christie books since high school. I did a summer reading project on And Then There Were None in tenth grade and it was my first Agatha Christie book to read! I still have the hard copy but it’s great to listen to before bed! I love that it comes with two books for one credit!

Amazing

Both books were amazing in content and narration. I didn’t want them to come to an end.

Two great Christies, beautifully read

Two wonderful books for the price of one. The Secret Adversary introduces Tommy and Tuppence, back when they were two young friends struggling to earn money after the war. The plot's a bit nutty, but the book brims with suspense and spirited banter; sometimes I forget how witty Christie can be. It's a joy. Then in a complete change of pace, comes And Then There Were None. Dan Stevens does a fabulous job as narrator (except for one older character, who gets such a ponderous voice I wanted to listen at double speed). I’d caught some of the movie versions, but hadn’t read the book in ages. MAN, what a brilliant plot. Put them together and you get the great Agatha Christie in two moods – warm, and ruthlessly tough.

Excellent story and performance!

Hugh Fraser is always excellent. Dan Stevens blew me away with his ability to bring characters to life and differentiate them so uniquely. Dan Stevens was a most wonderful surprise! Well done!!!

Two classics

You really can't go wrong with Christie. The narrators are both wonderful especially Dan Stevens.
