Death on the Nile
Description of book
Agatha Christie’s most exotic murder mystery, read by Hercule Poirot himself, David Suchet.

Hercule Poirot recalled an earlier outburst by a fellow passenger: ‘I’d like to put my dear little pistol against her head and just press the trigger.’ Yet in this exotic setting nothing was ever quite what it seemed…

- I often listen to Death on the Nile it’s a well known piece but rightly so . Christie’s elegant story telling and subtle plotting is beautifully executed here. If an intriguing puzzle well expressed is to your taste then it will satisfy but if you need huge amounts of gore and masses of extremely vulnerable victims then the current bloodbath writers will suit you more

Only downside for me was Suchet rather than than Fraser narratingBook★5
Narration★4
- Lite väl komplicerad lösning och miljön gör inget för mig. David Suchet är fantastisk i tv-serien som Poirot men som inläsare är han inte i närheten av Hugh Fraser - han spelar över i vissa roller så det blir jobbigt att lyssna på.

- One of Christie’s best - so many twists and turns. David Suchet’s narration is fantastic (despite some occasionally questionable accents!)
