About this listen

When Cora is savagely murdered with a hatchet, the extraordinary remark she made the previous day at her brother Richard’s funeral suddenly takes on a chilling significance.

At the reading of Richard’s will, Cora was clearly heard to say: ‘It’s been hushed up very nicely, hasn’t it…But he was murdered, wasn’t he?’

In desperation, the family solicitor turns to Hercule Poirot to unravel the mystery.

Hugh Fraser and Poirot! You know you’re in for a treat! Classic Christie brought to life with skilful narration makes for a wonderful time.

Poirot at his very best!

Hugh Fraser is a wonderful narrator and even sounds like David Suchet’s Poirot in voice. I really enjoy Agatha Christie’s books even more then the Tele-movies (which are also excellent) because of the red herrings she scatters throughout.

Thoroughly enjoyable

Hugh Fraser is an absolutely lovely reader! I've always been a huge admirer of Agatha Christies work and After the Funeral only furthers that admiration. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone!

Wonderful!

Can't really fault a good Christie with a nice hot cup of tea and a warm blanket.

This has always been one of my favourite stories because I couldn't guess the ending and it hit me like a tonne of bricks when the murderer was revealed.

Another Brilliant Work of Christie

All the crazies came out for this one! Very enjoyable and of course I didn't guess it!

Another classic Poirot!
