An Audible Original multi-cast adaptation of THE MURDER AT THE VICARAGE, Agatha Christie's classic mystery that introduces beloved amateur detective Miss Marple, voiced by Toni Collette.

In the rural idyll of St Mary Mead, a murder has taken place. The despised Major Protheroe is found dead in the vicarage study by Reverend Leonard Clement. Though the Major had many enemies, the violence of his death shocks the sleepy village and starts the tongues of the local gossips wagging. The first suspects are the Major's beautiful young wife, Anne, and her purported lover, handsome artist Lawrence Redding. But St Mary Mead is full of secrets, and the real killer could be anyone. Was it Protheroe's daughter, Lettice, set to inherit a fortune? Then there's Dr Stone, an archaeologist whose story isn't adding up, and Mrs Lestrange, a woman no one seems to know anything about. Even the Vicar's own wife could be a suspect. Miss Marple is the only person perceptive enough to see through the façade of polite society — and once she turns her attention to someone, their true nature is fully exposed .

Toni Collette (Hereditary) leads an all-star cast as Agatha Christie's famous detective, with Kit Harington (Game of Thrones) as the Vicar. Written by BAFTA-nominated writer and comedian Vicki Pepperdine, it also stars Calam Lynch, Eliot Salt, Jasmine Jobson, Honor Swinton-Byrne, Katy Wix, Lolly Adefope, Leo Reich, Billy Postlethwaite, Hugh Dennis, Alex Jennings, Kathryn Drysdale, Kurt Egyiawan, La Voix, Meera Syal and Vicki Pepperdine.

The production features an original score by Wasia Project.

Available in Dolby Atmos on Audible.

I enjoyed the story and the voice acting, but some of the actors sounded so similar to me, that I had trouble keeping them apart and following the story.

Entertaining but a bit confusing

I quite enjoyed this adaptation. The voice actors are superb. Here are my small issues: The sound mixing is quite bad. It gets a little better as the play goes on, but the music and sound effects are way too loud at times. The "modernization" of the script. Things like BFF or SA are thrown in their for, I think, a chuckle? But it was quite immersion breaking.
Still, I think it's well worth a listen and very entertaining!

Great story with caveats

Aboslutely awful!
This Miss Marple sounds like a 30 something "live, love, laugh " american woman trying to speak british english.
I don't know who the target audience for this adaptation is, but surely not fans of Agatha Christie's writing. How ist something like this even possible!?
3 characters: the vicar = Mr. Kit Harington with excellent performance and reason why I listened to it till the end; Colonel Melchett and Colonel Protheroe, speak authentic 1930 language with the respective intonation. The rest speaks contemporary english as if making casual social media video. The background sound is partly too loud, and the main sound is partly hollow.
If you don't mind sentences like "I'm her BFF now" with overall comedy touch to it, then you can try this. Otherwise don't waste your time.

Awful
