Lord Edgware Dies: A Hercule Poirot Mystery: The Official Authorized Edition Audiobook

When Lord Edgware is found murdered the police are baffled. His estranged actress wife was seen visiting him just before his death and Hercule Poirot himself heard her brag of her plan to “get rid” of him.

But how could she have stabbed Lord Edgware in his library at exactly the same time she was seen dining with friends? It’s a case that almost proves to be too much for the great Poirot.

Life is on the line when an egotistical American actress comes to Poirot, requesting his help in divorcing her British husband. Death, of course, is hovering nearby, and as the body count climbs, so does Poirot’s frustration with the cunning murderer. Or is it murderers? The connections between the players are numerous and confusing. Hugh Fraser, who played Captain Hastings in the PBS screenplays, creates characterizations that beckon listeners into Dame Christie’s fun house of drama and foul play.”
