A collection of Agatha Christie's stories of the macabre and the occult, from the story "The Red Signal", in which an omen from "the other side" unmasks an insane killer, to "The Hound of Death", in which a convent blows up - and on the remaining wall is left a black powder mark, in the shape of a great dog. The other spine-chilling mysteries are "The Fourth Man", "The Gipsy", and "The Lamp".

The year is 1920, and an ambitious doctor meets a nun apparently traumatised by what she witnessed in the Great War. An attempt to restore the woman's sanity results in the uncovering of something very sinister indeed.

A classic Agatha Christie short story, available individually for the first time in digital audio, performed by Christopher Lee. In this supernatural tale by the Queen of Crime, a nun has memories of a past life in an ancient civilisation and believes she can harness natural psychic powers.
