About this listen
Juliet Stevenson reads Miss Marple’s Final Cases, Agatha Christie’s last collection of short stories to feature the woman who had become the world’s most popular female detective, Miss Jane Marple.
Nine intriguing tales
One unequalled storyteller
An unknown wounded man in a church. A fatal riding accident. A corpse and a tape measure.
Whether in St Mary Mead or further afield, there is always much wickedness lurking below the surface, should, like Jane Marple, you have the eyes to see it.
Published posthumously, this collection of tales, seven of them featuring Agatha Christie’s much loved Miss Marple, plus two stand-alone stories, is a treasure trove.
Never underestimate Miss Marple
‘She gives us an insight into human nature that few, if any, have surpassed.’
Susan Lewis
‘The acknowledged queen of detective fiction.’
Observer
This is a collection of reasonably good short stories - some I wished would last longer, a couple of slight stories which could have been developed into something more substantial, had the author so desired.
Juliet Stevenson’s narration is almost perfect — except when she runs out of ideas for character voices & tries to create a deep female voice which just doesn’t work - it sounds like Monty Python and The Life of Brian’s women in beards at the stoning scene.
Other than that, a very pleasant way to spend a few hours with Miss Marple :-)
Reasonably good short stories …
