Actor David Suchet recalls his experience of playing Agatha Christie's world-famous detective, Hercule Poirot, for almost a quarter of a century. In the summer of 2013 David Suchet filmed his final scenes as Hercule Poirot. After 24 years in the role, he will have played the character in every story that Agatha Christie wrote about him (bar one, deemed unfilmable) and he will bid adieu to a role and a character that have changed his life.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 692
A blinding snowstorm - and a homicidal maniac - traps a small party of friends in an isolated estate. Out of this deceptively simple setup, Agatha Christie fashioned one of her most ingenious puzzlers, which in turn would provide the basis for The Mousetrap, the longest-running play in history. From this classic title novella to the deliciously clever gems on its tail (solved to perfection by Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple), this rare collection of murder most foul showcases Christie at her inventive best.

"Anyone who murdered Colonel Protheroe," declared the parson, brandishing a carving knife above a joint of roast beef, "would be doing the world at large a favor!" It was a careless remark for a man of the cloth. And one which was to come back and haunt the clergyman just a few hours later - when the Colonel is found shot dead in the clergyman's study. But as Miss Marple soon discovers, the whole village seems to have had a motive to kill Colonel Protheroe.

David Suchet IS Poirot!
This collection of short stories is wonderfully narrated by David Suchet, who will always be the definitive Hercule Poirot. He possesses however, many other voices and accents, including a quite creditable American accent. This as a delight to listen to.

Thank you for this brilliant recording!
To listen to David Suchet when he reads these short stories is a joy! He is all the characters with or without accents or English dialects, and he is a valuable gift for all of us who has English as 2nd language. The stories can also be seen on DVDs, but it is more fun to listen to them, and, in the head, you will "see" him again, when you hear the fantastic artist, David Suchet, perform this theatre for your ears.🤗💖 5 stars is not enough for Mr Suchet as the Narrator!

Murder in Paradise may be a good book but it was so buggy I couldn’t lister to it. The audio kept shutting off and when I restarted it, it repeated previous dialogues. This is not happening with my other books.
