A sterling collection of short stories featuring Hercule Poirot and others, The Golden Ball and Other Stories is a riveting compendium of shocking secrets, dastardly crimes, and brilliant detection—a showcase of Dame Agatha at her very best.

Is it a gesture of goodwill or a sinister trap that lures Rupert St. Vincent and his family to a magnificent estate?

How desperate is Joyce Lambert, a destitute young widow whose only recourse is to marry a man she despises? W

hat unexpected circumstance stirs old loyalties in Theodora Darrell, an unfaithful wife about to run away with her lover?

In this collection of short stories, the answers are as unexpected as they are satisfying. The Queen of Mystery takes bizarre romantic entanglements, supernatural visitations, and classic murder to inventive new heights.

Wonderful Collection

This was an eclectic mix of Agatha Christie short stories, some mysteries, some stories of revenge or comeuppance -some related to the supernatural and to fate. The supernatural stories are less interesting to me but the remaining stories I enjoyed and would recommend.

Interesting collection, very different from the usual Agatha Christie!

Excellent before bedtime stories and narrations. Easy to listen to and escape into the settings and craft of famous authors' short stories.

Each of these stories is delightfully charming. They are the perfect antidote to a gloomy mood. I haven’t looked up the publication dates but I would guess circa 1920s-30s. Lovely!

Christie Charms!
