Truly great collection of murder mysteries from
arguably the best golden age detective author.

With Christmas approaching, I love to get into the winter mood with some chilling winter mysteries, but was a little disappointed that this is not really a themed collection. While all are very good, one is set in Palma De Mallorca so not very wintery!

That aside, a truly enjoyable set of short stories and fans of the genre will not be disappointed.

I found it impossible to engage with any of the stories - though I am writing this only midway through the audiobook. This is my 4th or 5th attempt over the last couple of years to listen but my mind wanders. I feel awkward for the narrator trying to lower her voice to lend some degree of believability to the characters but it’s an uncomfortable experience all round.

Why have a lady narrate Poirot & Satterthwaite stories?
