Partners in Crime

A Tommy and Tuppence Mystery: The Official Authorized Edition

By: Agatha Christie

Narrated by: Hugh Fraser

Read by Hugh Fraser

Agatha Christie’s Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are Partners in Crime—or rather partners in crime solving—and must demonstrate their deductive skills in a wide range of confounding cases after agreeing to take over Blunt’s International Detective Agency.

Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are restless for adventure, so when they are asked to take over Blunt's International Detective Agency, they leap at the chance.

Their first case is a success—the triumphant recovery of a pink pearl. Other cases soon follow—a stabbing on Sunningdale golf course; cryptic messages in the personal columns of newspapers; and even a box of poisoned chocolates. But can they live up to their slogan of "Any case solved in 24 hours"?

The original dynamic duo

Before Nick and Nora Charles, before the Harts. There was Tommy and Tumpance. The original amateur detective duo couple. Solving crimes and having fun. The only detectives Christie alowed to get married, have children, and grow old together. 5 novels and less then 20 short stories they were a great team. Hugh Fraser played Hastings in Poirot does a great job narrating this book.

Loved it. So good

I loved the way different detectives and characters were brought into the story as well as the other stories being brought along.

let the adventures begin!

loved that you never knew what to expect. Good mysteries and light hearted. very entertaining for our road trips.

Really, quite fun.

Classic Agatha Christie with an added twist of humor. Hugh Frasier does an excellent job.

Love this series!

I love the Tommy and Tuppence books. Partners in Crime is their short story adventures as Private Inquiry agents. Picking up after Secret Adversary and followed by N or M?, the stories each chronicle a case the team is working on. Lots of dialogue, jests about fictional detectives, funny and upbeat. I think I love their marriage as it is revealed through the series. I've listened to this series three times. Great narrator!
