I thought I had read this book before, but either I was wrong or this is one of those books that feels like new every time you read it. I was on the edge of my seat, figuratively speaking, and stayed up past my bedtime to finish it, and other such murder mystery reading clichés. I knew how it ended,...
My wife and I listened to this book from beginning to end on a long car journey across the UK. It kept us entertained the entire way. The quick, gentle humour in the book caught me by surprise. I loved the early interactions between Poirot, Hastings and Japp, where they discussed the small persona...
So this is Agatha Christie´s take on a serial killer story. And she manages to pull it of. Whether it is one of her classic who dunnits, this serial killer story or if its even one of her ridiculous spy stories, I never regret reading a book by her and I´m thoroughly entertained by them. The ABC M...
Series: Hercule Poirot #13 A murderer seems to be working his (or her) way through his (or her) victims using The ABC Railway Guide.

One of the most enjoyable Poirot's I've read so far. The basic plot surrounds some letters sent to Hercule Poirot by the ABC killer, warning him a head of time that the murders will occur and inviting him into a cat-and-mouse game. You would think that, by now, killers would stop trying to mess...
The ABC Murders' by Agatha Christie is another tale of Hercule Poirot, the famous Belgian sleuth (with his groomed mustaches). The book was also published as ‘The Alphabet Murders’. It is the story of continuous killings happening in the English alphabetical order and Poirot’s attempt to deduce the ...
The ABC Murder appeared to be one of Christie’s most popular and highly rated works, which made I dove into it with such a high expectation. It turned out to be a BIG disappointment.Hasting, recently returned from South America to handle some business narrated the story. It was nice to see them pair...
I liked the guy who narrated this on audio.A solid story. Top notch mystery. I don't know how people are able to figure out any of this. Let alone write it! Originally published on GR in July 2010. I remember listening to this on my commute to and from work. I also remember sitting in the car in m...
