À propos de cet audio
Two best-selling Agatha Christie novels in one great audiobook.
The Man in the Brown Suit is Agatha Christie at her best, as a young woman makes a dangerous decision to investigate a shocking “accidental” death she witnesses at a London tube station.
Pretty, young Anne came to London looking for adventure. In fact, adventure comes looking for her - and finds her immediately at Hyde Park Corner tube station. Anne is present on the platform when a thin man, reeking of mothballs, loses his balance and is electrocuted on the rails.
The Scotland Yard verdict is accidental death. But Anne is not satisfied. After all, who was the man in the brown suit who examined the body? And why did he race off, leaving a cryptic message behind: "17-122 Kilmorden Castle"?
Now a feature film from Sony Pictures starring Christina Hendricks, Gillian Anderson, and Glenn Close.
Described by the Queen of Mystery herself as one of her favorites of her published works, Crooked House is a classic Agatha Christie thriller revolving around a devastating family mystery.
The Leonides are one big happy family living in a sprawling, ramshackle mansion. That is until the head of the household, Aristide, is murdered with a fatal barbiturate injection.
Suspicion naturally falls on the old man’s young widow, 50 years his junior. But the murderer has reckoned without the tenacity of Charles Hayward, fiancé of the late millionaire’s granddaughter.
“Writing Crooked House was pure pleasure and I feel justified in my belief that it is one of my best.” (Agatha Christie)

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.

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?

Histoire
Did one of the Cavendish brothers poison their stepmother, Mrs. Iglethorp, or was it her new husband? Nadia May reads with such a delightful English accent, intonation, and careful pacing that the suspense and drama build gradually. Each character is easily distinguishable and a treat to listen to, especially Poirot. This baffling tale with many characters is well worth this listening experience. The compulsion to discover the truth is motive enough for all.

the man in the brown suit was entertaining but didn't leave me guessing who the killer could be as we were constantly being introduced to new characters along the journey.
the crooked house did leave me guessing but the reveal felt rushed and lack luster. but I still didn't guess it, so I guess it was still a surprise.
I liked them and will likely read them again, but I wouldn't put them as my absolute favorite Christie novels
Agatha Christie does it again

Both fantastic stories
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
The beginning was entertaining enough but, once the romance was introduced, the main character stopped making sense to me. I was also very disappointed by Race's character (un)development. But a couple of secondary characters and the great narration made this worthwhile.
4 stars for Crooked House.
I really missed Poirot but I enjoyed the plot.
5 stars to both narrators.
Get it for Crooked House and cool villains
Un problème est survenu. Veuillez réessayer dans quelques minutes.
However, Crooked House was an absolute slam-dunk!! I can’t say enough good about it. It was a real page-turner (so to speak) and I was absolutely enthralled from beginning to end. This is now one of my top few favourite Agatha Christie books!
If you have the opportunity, I recommend getting Crooked House separately and not wasting your time on The Man in the Brown Suit.
Hit and miss
