Showing results for "abc" in Traditional Detectives

Hercule Poirot and Arthur Hastings reunite for their most difficult case yet. When Poirot receives a letter warning him that a crime is about to be committed by the writer: 'A.B.C' the friends find themselves in a race against time to decipher the killer's twisted logic as he taunts the great detective by announcing the next murder location alphabetically. With every new killing a new pool of suspects is uncovered. Can Poirot and Hastings unmask the killer before a final letter seals an innocent victim's fate?

Collins brings the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, to English language learners. Collins brings the Queen of Crime, Agatha Christie, to English language learners. Agatha Christie is the most widely published author of all time and in any language. Now Collins has adapted her famous detective...

A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation starring John Moffatt as the great Belgian detective with Simon Williams and Philip Jackson. Alice Ascher, a poor, elderly shopkeeper, is murdered in Andover. Betty Barnard, a young waitress, is strangled with her own belt at Bexhill-on-Sea. Next comes Carmichael Clarke, collector of Chinese art, clubbed to death in Churston. Only in Doncaster does the pattern vary: the man found stabbed in the Regal Cinema is called George Earsfield.

Bien sûr, la retraite a ses charmes... Cependant, Hercule Poirot ne peut s'empêcher, de temps à autre, de reprendre du service. Oh ! pas pour n'importe quelle affaire, bien entendu. Un détective aussi célèbre que lui ne se dérangerait pas pour un meurtre ordinaire. Non, Hercule Poirot ne s'intéresse qu'aux crimes les plus déroutants, les plus passionnants, les plus... Bref, à la crème des crimes.

Poirot kommer på sporet af en seriemorder, der benytter bogstaverne i alfabetet som pejlemaerker til sine mord. Han modtager et brev med angivelsen af, hvornår "A" vil blive myrdet. Det går i opfyldelse, da Mrs. Asher i Andover bliver fundet død. Det samme sker med "B" og "C" også her bliver to dødsofre fundet. Samtidig efterlader morderen en ABC-køreplan på gerningsstederne. Hvad skal dét betyde? Politiets mistanke peger snart i én retning, men Poirot og hans ven kaptajn Hastings følger andre spor.

Diesmal wird sogar Hercule Poirot nervös: Ein Wahnsinniger mordet in alphabetischer Reihenfolge und besitzt dazu noch die Frechheit, den belgischen Meisterdetektiv von jedem Mord vorab zu informieren - jedoch immer ein klein wenig zu spät... Ein Wettlauf gegen die Zeit beginnt!
