Curtain: Poirot's Last Case

A Hercule Poirot Mystery: The Official Authorized Edition

De: Agatha Christie

Narrado por: Hugh Fraser

The legendary detective saves his best for last as he races to apprehend a five-time killer before the final curtain descends in Curtain: Poirot’s Last Case, the last book Agatha Christie published before her death.

The crime-fighting careers of Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings have come full circle—they are back once again in the rambling country house in which they solved their first murder together.

Both Hercule Poirot and Great Styles have seen better days—but, despite being crippled with arthritis, there is nothing wrong with the great detective and his “little gray cells.” However, when Poirot brands one of the seemingly harmless guests a five-time murderer, some people have their doubts. But Poirot alone knows he must prevent a sixth murder before the curtain falls.

The Grandest Finally!!!

I'm so sorry to hear of the final case. I have followed each broadcast on PBS for years. listening to the reading of the story in such details can not compare to the quickness of TV. Excellent simply Excellent!

She never disappoints

Narrator was wonderful and the plot excellent. Sad to see an end, but Ms. Christie did him proud. RIP M. Poirot.

entertaining

Well articulated and thoughtful. I enjoy Agatha Christie but my eyes are weak after work - audible is a blessing.

Wonderful Poirot!!

have always liked Agatha Christie, but especially have I loved her Belgian detective. This story takes us full circle with Poirot and Hastings, back to Styles the scene of their first adventure together. I won't go into more detail as I don't want to give any spoilers. This is a worthy addition to your Christie library, and I highly recommend this book. Good hunting!

Like a sack of bricks!

I saved this book for the very last of my Agatha Christie binge listen. My goodness. I almost wish I hadn’t have read this one. Hit hard. I have no more Poirot to read... almost felt like someone real and now, well....

10 out of 10

Excellent final case. Fraser is a compassionate narrator. Sad that I'm done with the series!

I want them all!

Hugh Fraser makes these books as alive and memorable as the TV series AND the books I read before tech. wonderful.

Again one of the best!!
