Story
Hercule Poirot's quiet supper in a London coffeehouse is interrupted when a young woman confides to him that she is about to be murdered. She is terrified - but begs Poirot not to find and punish her killer. Once she is dead, she insists, justice will have been done. Later that night, Poirot learns that three guests at a fashionable London Hotel have been murdered, and a cufflink has been placed in each one’s mouth. Could there be a connection with the frightened woman?

Story
Sidelined by his war injuries in 1916, Captain Hastings travels to his friend’s estate at Styles Court to recover from his wounds. As the summer heats up, a tragic murder occurs, and Hastings calls upon the services of his old acquaintance Hercule Poirot. With seemingly unrelated clues - a scrap of a burned will, a false beard, and an empty packet of bromide - the brilliant detective launches his first investigation on English soil and forges an enduring friendship.

Mr. Shaitana is famous as a flamboyant party host. Nevertheless, he is a man of whom everybody is a little afraid. So when he boasts to Hercule Poirot that he considers murder an art form, the detective has some reservations about accepting a party invitation to view Shaitana's "private collection". Indeed, what begins as an absorbing evening of bridge is to turn into a more dangerous game altogether.

Story
Mrs. Packington felt alone, helpless, and utterly forlorn. But her life changed when she stumbled upon an advertisement in the Times that read: "Are you happy? If not, consult Mr. Parker Pyne." Equally adept at putting together the fragments of a murder mystery or the pieces of a broken marriage, Mr. Parker Pyne is possibly the world's most unconventional private investigator. Armed with just his intuitive knowledge of human nature, he is an Englishman abroad, traveling the globe to solve and undo crime and misdemeanor.

Of interest only to completionists
Buy this last if you buy it at all, and only if you, like me, feel a need to have all of Agatha Christie's works, from the best to the worst.
This is arguably Agatha Christie's worst piece of work, certainly it is among the lowest rank. In her writing career she attempted the spy thriller about half a dozen times, never very well. Passenger to Frankfurt is a mess with a ludicrous string of conspiracy theories intertwined with psuedo science, stock characters, and tropes that are wholly unconvincing and un-entertaining. The plot is ridiculous and the storytelling repetitive and quite frankly boring.
The narration by Hugh Fraser is very workmanlike, but it is not enough to elevate the source material.
If you do listen to (or read) the whole book you will come across a few scenes that shine like gems in the muck, a few passages of lovely descriptions and vivid realism, like a child coveting a koala in an airport lounge, that almost certainly Agatha Christie had to have really observed.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
