Hercule Poirot's Christmas

A Hercule Poirot Mystery: The Official Authorized Edition

De: Agatha Christie

Narrado por: Hugh Fraser

In Hercule Poirot’s Christmas, the holidays are anything but merry when a family reunion is marred by murder—and the notoriously fastidious investigator is quickly on the case.

Christmas Eve, and the Lee family’s reunion is shattered by a deafening crash of furniture and a high-pitched wailing scream. Upstairs, the tyrannical Simeon Lee lies dead in a pool of blood, his throat slashed.

When Hercule Poirot offers to assist, he finds an atmosphere not of mourning but of mutual suspicion. It seems everyone had their own reason to hate the old man. . . .

One of the all time favoritves

Where does Hercule Poirot's Christmas rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I enjoy listening to all Agatha Christie's Poirot books, but this one is definitely one of the best plot-wise. Although some of the revelations could have been anticipated, the final discovery of the murderer had me actually gasping. Also, while in The Hollow and the Halloween Party Poirot uncovers the truth, his presence in the narrative is relatively small and doesn't begin until much later in the book, however, here he has the most timely entrance and keeps the reader captivated.

Best story

Fraser is my favorite reader. A a a a a a great time a a

Good story, great narrator

I enjoyed this book much more because of the narrator. Unique voices for all characters that stayed consistent, and an easy, clear cadance that made it easy to keep up with and interesting to listen to.

excellent audible

narration was superb.
I couldn't guess the conclusion, suspense til the end.
I look forward to the next book.

Poirot never disappoints!

This was very entertaining with the typical— just about everyone has a motive but you don’t see the end coming! Enjoyed the narration as well!
