Showing results by narrator "Tom Conti" in Literature & Fiction

What begins as a routine journey on the luxurious Orient Express soon unfurls into Agatha Christie's most famous murder mystery. This all-star production features lead performances from Tom Conti ( The Dark Knight Rises, Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence) as Hercule Poirot, Sophie Okonedo ( After Earth, Hotel Rwanda and Ace Ventura) and Eddie Marsan ( Sherlock Holmes, V for Vendetta and Hancock) plus a full supporting cast.

Set mainly in the Scottish Highlands in the years following the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745, Kidnapped follows the fortunes of the young David Balfour as he endeavours to claim the inheritance of which he has been cheated by his scheming Uncle Ebenezer. A tale of kidnap, shipwreck, murder, and pursuit, Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure-story is as compelling now as when it was first published in 1886.
