Story
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.

Publisher's Summary
Two best-selling Agatha Christie novels in one great audiobook
The Mysterious Affair at Styles - Hercule Poirot solves his first case in the Agatha Christie novel that started it all.
Who poisoned the wealthy Emily Inglethorp and how did the murderer penetrate and escape from her locked bedroom? Suspects abound in the quaint village of Styles St. Mary - from the heiress' fawning new husband to her two stepsons, her volatile housekeeper, and a pretty nurse who works in a hospital dispensary. With impeccable timing, and making his unforgettable debut, the brilliant Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is on the case.
The ABC Murders - Agatha Christie's beloved classic The ABC Murders sets Hercule Poirot on the trail of a serial killer.
There’s a serial killer on the loose, working his way through the alphabet and the whole country is in a state of panic. A is for Mrs. Ascher in Andover, B is for Betty Barnard in Bexhill, C is for Sir Carmichael Clarke in Churston. With each murder, the killer is getting more confident - but leaving a trail of deliberate clues to taunt the proud Hercule Poirot might just prove to be the first, and fatal, mistake.

Accented perfection
Agatha Christie’s books are undeniably well written, so the potential weak link is the narration. But, Hugh Fraser’s Hercule Poirot is sublime. Also, I was right there with Hastings, and could feel his exasperation with his odd, annoying, but brilliant friend as they worked through two mysteries. Even with the twists and turns, this was easy listening. Comfort food for the ears!

The Beginning of Something Beautiful
I particularly love the introduction of characters, it's a really important and can easily be messed up. One of the best aspects about Poirot is his outrageous appearance and mannerisms. Though what keeps you is his ORDER and METHOD, his two Gods. I love the contrast between Hastings and Poirot, how they play off of each other. Another aspect of Agatha Christie's books is the time period, you can't get away from that. It's so interesting how similar and different the this period was to present day. You can understand the motivations and desires of the characters while also noting the how the customs and social expectations of the day shape the way they act. It's kind of funny what passes as a bold independent woman in the 1920's.
