À propos de cet audio

In Mrs. McGinty’s Dead, one of Agatha Christie’s most ingenious mysteries, the intrepid Hercule Poirot must look into the case of a brutally murdered landlady.

Mrs. McGinty died from a brutal blow to the back of her head. Suspicion falls immediately on her shifty lodger, James Bentley, whose clothes reveal traces of the victim’s blood and hair. Yet something is amiss: Bentley just doesn’t seem like a murderer.

Could the answer lie in an article clipped from a newspaper two days before the death? With a desperate killer still free, Hercule Poirot will have to stay alive long enough to find out. . . .

Another classic Agatha. My only complaint is that there are so many characters that it was hard to keep them straight in my head.

Great read!

despite what other reviewers say I just could not get into this book. I tried over and over. There seemed to be too many pointless characters who contributed nothing to the story line. The plot didn't go anywhere. Extremely slow moving.
