About this listen

A classic Christie story read by Hugh Fraser, who plays Captain Hastings in the popular TV series.

Sir Stafford Nye’s journey home from Malaya to London takes an unexpected twist in the passnger loungs at Frankfurt – a young woman confides in him that someone is trying to kill her.

Yet their paths are to cross again and again – and each time the mystery woman is introduced as a different person. Equally at home in any guise in any society she draws Sir Stafford into a game of political intrigue more dangerous than he could possibly imagine.

In an arena where no-one can be sure of anyone, Nye must do battle with a well-armed, well-financed, well-trained – and invisble – enemy…

improbable story unlike Christie and difficult to finish. Not worth the effort and very disappointed.

I cannot comprehend how far below Christie's standard this plot was. Implausible even within itself, utterly lacking in tension, and boring. Listened to the end only to see whether there was any indication that she had an ending in mind, or was just going to stop at random.

Astonishingly bad
