Passenger to Frankfurt

De: Agatha Christie

Narrado por: Hugh Fraser

Christie's superb stand-alone mystery, Passenger to Frankfurt, is a true masterwork of surprise and suspense, as a diplomat comes to the aid of a terrified woman in an airport, only to find that his identity has been stolen and his life is suddenly in serious jeopardy.

Sir Stafford Nye's flight home from Malaya takes an unprecedented twist when a young woman confides in him that someone is trying to kill her. In a moment of weakness, he agrees to lend her his passport. Unwittingly, the diplomat has put his own life on the line.

When he meets the mystery woman again, she is a different person, and he finds himself drawn into a battle against an invisible—and altogether more dangerous—enemy. . . .

this is the only Agatha Christie book I ever read that I found boring

The narration as usual is perfection. The plot of this novel is endless, somewhat meandering, and dry. Nobody is very, and I guess this is the only un-engaging boom Agatha Christie ever wrote. For me the best part about the story is how exactly it echoes the politics of today in a horrifying history lesson. From a historical perspective this books is fascinating. But the plot itself Zzzzzzzzz

surprisingly weak for an agatha christie

this was written in agatha's later years and it seems much weaker than her previous works. ah well - nevertheless - she remains the queen of mystery all the same! we are still huge fans. :-)

Confusing and complicated

Plot tangled and complicated to the point that it became boring. The worst of Christie's that I've read so far. Waste of money and time.

Divergent

This book is not the usual mystery Christie excels at writing. The plot centers more or less on how ideas or political/philosophical ideologies have always been part of mankind's history across all cultures . Nonetheless, it is quite clever and engaging to read.
