Beschreibung

The Seven Dials Mystery, penned by the legendary Agatha Christie, invites readers into a world of cunning conspiracies and shadowy secrets set against the tranquil backdrop of an English country house. A weekend gathering at Chimneys takes a perilous turn when a prank involving alarm clocks leads to a tragic discovery. Initially dismissed as a freak accident, the mysterious circumstances stir up amateur detective Lady Eileen "Bundle" Brent's inquisitive nature. With her keen wit and spirited companions, she embarks on a quest to uncover the significance of the cryptic Seven Dials — a hidden society rumored to hold the key to a deadly plot.
As the investigation proceeds, each new revelation peels back another layer of deception, plunging Bundle deeper into a labyrinth of betrayal and intrigue. Christie weaves suspense and humor, creating a rousing and exciting adventure that keeps the pages turning. From curious mansion corridors to clandestine meetings under cover of night, this novel brims with cunning suspects, surprising twists, and vibrant characters you can't help but root for. The Seven Dials Mystery stands as a testament to Christie's knack for uniting clever puzzles with lively storytelling, making it a beloved classic of the Golden Age detective genre.

    Spring is in full swing in lakefront Button Cove, and Jacqueline is embracing her new life—her friends, her new home, the crones down the street, and especially the detective with a hot-Viking vibe. It's not half bad, considering the fact that she has the bickering literary characters of Mrs. Hudson (Sherlock's landlady) and the dour, creepy housekeeper Mrs. Danvers from Rebecca "helping" her to run the bookshop, and her nemesis Egala Stone is opening her own store down the block. 
     
     
     
    And then there's the handsome new undertaker—er, mortician—who's taken over the town funeral parlor and who has all the women ga-ga over him—including Jacqueline's friends. Things get a little weird when Detective Massermey's daughter seeks out help from Jacqueline, but surely she can handle that . . . right? 
     
     
     
    But when an old book falls off the shelf, signaling the arrival of yet another literary character Jacqueline has to deal with, and strange accidents and thefts begin to happen in Button Cove, Jacqueline once again finds herself in a big, fat mess.

    In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type.  But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just over-looked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit.   
     
    Each of their works is laden with talent, has purpose, and is rich and textured in this gloried niche of literature.

    A thought-provoking mystery unfolds in a small coastal Dutch town after a host’s private party ends in murder.A French professor is staying in a coastal Dutch town while on a lecture tour—but when his host is murdered, he’s held for questioning as the prime suspect. Maigret’s assistance is requested, so he travels to the northeast of Holland, where he meets the attendees of a small private gathering the week before: Beetje, the coquettish daughter of a local farmer; Madame Popinga, the victim’s wife; Any Van Elst, her sister and a prospective lawyer; and Cornelius, a student at the Naval College; among a few others. While some are content blaming the outsider in their midst, Maigret senses something more enigmatic at play. Why does Conrad Popinga walk Beetje home every night she visits? What does the local crook Oosting know—and why was his cap found in the Popingas’ bathroom, one of the only rooms that overlooks the crime scene? In a town this small, Maigret knows its inhabitants know more than they claim.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
