Sad Cypress (Dramatised) Audiobook

" Elinor is accused of murdering her love rival. Poirot to the rescue. I thought I had sussed this early on and was enjoying the red herrings. And I was completely wrong. Christie can still fox me. Great. "

" One of my favorite Agatha Christie's so far! "

" I'm going to review all Christie's books/stories with one review. She's an awesome author. The reader gets a peek into aristocratic English life of a much earlier time period. The stories are all plot-driven, with sketchy characters, and sometimes contrived clues, but the plots are INTERESTING and keep the reader involved. There's a lot of violence,blood, guts, and evil--off screen/page--but no voyeuristic sex in great detail, thank heaven!! These books are as nice to read as curling up in your favorite chair with a cup of cocoa and the dog on your lap while it blizzards outside. "

" One of Christie's best with a trial scene ending no less. "

" One of the best Agatha Christie's books, if you ask. =) "

" A fun book with the interesting Hercule Poirot. I enjoyed this tale of a young Heiress accused of murdering a young lady living on the Estate. An interesting blend of characters and circumstances. "

" I stayed up way too late reading this book because I couldn't put it down. About halfway through I realized I had read it before, but I still didn't come close to guessing/remembering who the murderer was. "

" Agatha Christie is just amazing. There is not much to say about her. "

" Almost a mirror image of Strong Poison by Dorothy L. Sayers, Sad Cypress is a retrospective book with a young woman accused of murder. Hercule Poirot enters to investigate as the woman is accused. "

" I found this at Goodwill. I thought I had read all the Agatha Christie novels. I am so glad I read it. Made me realize why I really like her writing style. A great read! Kept me guessing till the end! "

" I love this bok not so much because it is one of her best but because it was finding this book at a garage sale that first introduced me to Agatha Christie -- and author I have inhaled ever since! "

" Different than the other Poirot mysteries, unusual in the way it is constructed. "

" clever Poirot-not as twisting as some "

" A classic Christie with Poirot in good form. Quick and easy to read. "

" This isn't one of the best of the Hercule Poirot mysteries. I figured out the culprit before the end, but not the motive. There is no Captain Hastings in this book, nor does Poirot ever mention "the little grey cells." It is a good mystery for gardeners, as the mystery concerns a Rose. "

" Elinor accused of murdering for love - or money "

" Its Agatha Christie, the greatest mystery writer of all time. Add to that the fact that this is a Poirot mystery, Christie's greatest character, and you have all the makings of a fabulous book. "

" First Agatha Christie I've read in a long while. . . thoroughly enjoyable! "

" Different in that it was done in retrospect of the murder. Definitely kept me guessing. "

" *three and a half stars actually*- for not resolving one plot thread...so unlike you Agatha Christie! "

" Dame Agatha Christie did it again. I was surprised by the way the mystery was solved, the twist at the end was definitely unexpected. I never did figure out why this was called "Sad Cypress," though. "

" It wasn't my favorite Agatha Christie. "

" This book had a deeper, more psychological aspect than most of Christie's works. "

" This book was first publised in 1939 ... it stands up to the test of time. "

" I never knew how it would end up until the very very end Christie is spectacular! "

" This was a good mystery! The ending will surprise you! "

" A little more emotionally involved than the average Christie. I found it hard to get over my disappointment at the most appealing character getting bumped off. Good but not her best. "

" Vintage Agatha Christie...though the ending wasn't a complete surprise, there were a few elements I didn't expect. Every now and then I just need a Hercule Poirot fix. "

" Not my favorite of the series. Poirot hired to prove a woman innocent of a murder. Didn't like the main character and the story didn't hold me. "

" One of my favorite Agatha Christie's so far! "

" i need to take a break from this. "

" you can never go wrong with Agatha Christie "

" "Sad Cypress" is another of Agatha Christie's great novels. I liked the courtroom drama format of the novel. "
