Audiobook narrated by Fenella Woolgar.

A wonderfully wintery collection of short stories from the marvellous Agatha Christie. Featuring an array of her beloved characters, this collection has a murderously magnificent feel.

- Each story is fairly short but wonderfully done. I enjoyed some more than other and some were more complex whereas others were simple but all were fun.

- If you enjoy Christie's famous detectives then you won't be disappointed. There's several involving Monsieur Poirot, a couple with Miss Marple and one or two with other less well known characters too.

- The narrator did an excellent job reading these tales. I particularly enjoyed how plummy she made the voices of the more upper class characters.

Perfect for those who love cosy mystery and festive vibes.
