Using Agatha Christie's simple, yet flawless, English, the twists and turns of her plots will keep listeners entertained while they improve their grammar and vocabulary.
Each volume is read by a selection of celebrated readers, many of whom are already synonymous with Agatha Christie, the Queen of Crime, after appearing in the world-renowned television adaptations of her work.
