The ABC Murders

By: Agatha Christie, Anna Lea - adaptation

Narrated by: Peter Dinklage, Himesh Patel, Sam Claflin, Joel Fry, Rahul Kohli, Lydia West, Ben Hardy

An Audible Original multi-cast adaptation of Agatha Christie's acclaimed classic, The ABC Murders, starring Peter Dinklage as the legendary Hercule Poirot.

Hercule Poirot and Arthur Hastings reunite for their most difficult case yet. When Poirot receives a letter warning him that a crime is about to be committed by the writer: 'A.B.C' the friends find themselves in a race against time to decipher the killer's twisted logic as he taunts the great detective by announcing the next murder location alphabetically. With every new killing a new pool of suspects is uncovered.

First is Alice Ascher in Andover, whose abusive husband has a shaky alibi. Then the flirtatious Betty Barnard is murdered, leaving behind possessive fiancé, Donald Fraser and jealous sister Megan. Carmichael Clarke is the third victim, a wealthy man whose ambitious secretary, Thora Grey, or grieving brother Franklin, could be suspects. All the while, the mysterious Mr Cust makes his rounds through England.

Can Poirot and Hastings unmask the killer before a final letter seals an innocent victim's fate?

Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones) returns as Agatha Christie's famous detective in his most beloved outing, with Himesh Patel (Yesterday) reprising his role as Captain Hastings. Also starring Sam Claflin (The Hunger Games), Lydia West (It's a Sin), Ben Hardy (Bohemian Rhapsody), Rahul Kohli (The Haunting of Bly Manor), Joel Fry (Our Flag Means Death) and Sian Clifford (Fleabag).

A great rendition of one of best Poirot stories ever written.

Another job well done to the cast for delivering another fantastic performance. The ABC Murders is one of my favorite from Agatha Christie and I’m happy to hear it today .

The surprise ending did not disappoint.

Peter Dinklage gave a very enjoyable performance. All the characters were wonderful. It is always treat to know the way Poirot relies on his little gray cells to solve a case.

Classic story with new voices that immersed me from the start

I enjoyed listening to this very much. Peter Dinklage gives Poirot a wonderful voice, the other actors’ performances are good, the voices really work well together. The sound effects made the atmosphere feel so realistic, I felt immersed into the story right from the start. I’ll surely listen to this again.

Wonderful BUT migraine trigger soundtrack 😱

I loved loved loved this second production with Peter Dinklage as Poirot! The writing and production were wonderful , acting excellent and it stayed true to the original while adding color with the performance . My only gripe is the decision to use an extremely high pitched sound to indicate when Cust is having a mental break - I get the affect they were going for but unfortunately that sound is migraine trigger pitch and it made me feel ill . Maybe they will consider removing it for a less painful sound? Or sound sensitive folks should just be aware. It’s so good though

Good Listen

I love Agatha Christie, this production made me feel as though I was there with the characters and we were all going through the mystery together.
