Geschichte
It is Egypt in 2000 BC, where death gives meaning to life. At the foot of a cliff lies the broken, twisted body of Nofret, concubine to a ka-priest. Young, beautiful, and venomous, most agree that it was fate - she deserved to die like a snake! But at her father's house on the banks of the Nile, the priest's daughter Renisenb believes that the woman's death is suspicious. Increasingly, she becomes convinced that the source of evil lurks within their household - and watches helplessly as the family's passions explode in murder.

Geschichte
Gerry Wade had proved himself to be a champion sleeper, so the other house guests decided to play a practical joke on him. Eight alarm clocks were set to go off, one after the other, starting at 6.30 a.m. But when morning arrived, one clock was missing, and the prank had backfired with tragic consequences. For Jimmy Thesiger in particular, the words "seven dials" were to take on a new and chilling significance.

Whilst organising a mock murder hunt for the village fete hosted by Sir George and Lady Stubbs, a feeling of dread settles on the famous crime novelist Adriane Oliver. Call it instinct, but it's a feeling she just can't explain...or get away from. In desperation she summons her old friend, Hercule Poirot - and her instincts are soon proved correct when the "pretend" murder victim is discovered playing the scene for real, a rope wrapped tightly around her neck.

Geschichte
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.

An Agatha Christie favorite
The narrator is amazing, and sound quality is good. It may be the best narration I've ever heard, sharing first place with the other books narrated by Emilia Fox. She makes the main characters a pleasure to listen to, and at no point did I get tired of their voices.
The story is good, also easily one of my favorite Christie ones with how deep the plot is and how likeable the main characters become after by the end. There is nobody that is "all-knowing" (like poirot sometimes...) but the mistakes the characters make all seem quite reasonable. What some people might not like is how *unlikely* the plot is, with many lucky coincidences in favor or against the protagonists, but I'm very willing to look over that with how well it brings the story forward.
The ending is also great - all lose ends are tied up and it doesn't leave you wondering about why details happened how they did.

Wundervolle Christie Geschichte gut gespielt
Dieses Hörbuch wird eines meiner Favoriten. Ich bevorzuge sonst Bücher aus den Hauptreihen Marple/Poirot, aber dieses um Bobby und Frankie ist toll geschrieben, man rätselt und stolpert mit ihnen durch die Ereignisse und erfährt auch vergleichsweise viel von ihnen. Zudem liest Emilia Fox lebendig und spannend.
