Three Act Tragedy

A Hercule Poirot Mystery: The Official Authorized Edition

De: Agatha Christie

Narrado por: Hugh Fraser

In Agatha Christie’s classic, Three Act Tragedy, the normally unflappable Hercule Poirot faces his most baffling investigation: the seemingly motiveless murder of the thirteenth guest at dinner party, who choked to death on a cocktail containing not a trace of poison.

Sir Charles Cartwright should have known better than to allow thirteen guests to sit down for dinner. For at the end of the evening one of them is dead—choked by a cocktail that contained no trace of poison.

Predictable, says Hercule Poirot, the great detective. But entirely unpredictable is that he can find absolutely no motive for murder.…

Excellent story and narration

This is one of my favorite Hercule Poirot books. The story was great and the narration was excellent

Excellent Narration by Hugh Fraser

What did you love best about Three Act Tragedy?

I like Agatha Christie's style of story telling. I like how the story was broken down into three acts. Hugh Fraser's narration is perfect, as always.

One of the Best

Great story! Got a little slow during the middle portion of the book, but the last part sucked me in. I was even able to guess the murderer, which almost never happens. Definitely recommend this!

Hugh Fraser is such a wonderful Poirot!

I've heard a few different narrations of Poirot but Hugh is my absolute favorite! He really does a great job! The story didn't interest in me in the beginning but got interesting as it went along.

Fascinating Mystery

No matter how many Hercule Poirot mysteries I read, I am still struck by how well crafted the story is written and how funny yet kind Hercule Poirot is as a character. This story is certainly in that same caliber. A very cleanly written yet highly entertaining read!
