"The plots are so good that one marvels...most of them would have made a full length thriller." ( Daily Mirror)

Wonderful short story

One of Agatha Christie's great short stories with fantastic characters. I thought it was well read with Lee's gravitas really lending itself to the story.

Awful

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

Sorry, Mr Lee, but this was a dreadful narration of a lukewarm short story. I am a great fan of Mrs Christie's books and I just love the Poirot and Miss Marple audiobooks but this ....... I probably won't return it but am certainly going to delete it from my library.
