About this audiobook
Agatha Christie’s famed sleuth Hercule Poirot solves a bevy of cases using all of his formidable assets. Using his overstuffed ego, his wine-taster’s nose, and his little gray cells, he saves the prime minister from kidnappers, recovers jewels from burglars, and solves many other unexpected puzzles and conundrums.
Narrating with gusto, B.J. Harrison breathes life into the punchy characters of Agatha Christie, resulting in a very satisfying audiobook experience.
