Long lost Christie stories found! This audiobook presents two recently rediscovered Hercule Poirot short stories by Agatha Christie. The stories were found inside 73 notebooks discovered at Greenway, Christie's family home in Devon, when the archive at the National Trust property was being established.
The Mystery of the Dog's Ball was eventually reworked into the novel Dumb Witness, but unlike other Christie short stories-turned-novels it remained unpublished. The other story, The Capture of Cerberus was written to complete The Labours of Hercules, a collection which followed the 12 cases Poirot chose to end his career. Christie eventually rewrote the story with the same title for that collection. David Suchet brings breathes new life into them here in this exclusive audiobook production!

"Two very enjoyable short stories, the second one was filmed as Dumb Witness, which is one of my favourites. The best thing about this audio is that it is David Suchet doing the narrating." — Lisa (4 out of 5 stars)

" Great narration from David Suchet! "
" These two stories were relatively recently found additions to Agatha Christie's works. The latter is the better of the two as it is classic Christie. David Suchet, as Poirot, is wonderful. "
" Despite David Suchet's brilliant performance both these stories were actually rather bland. "
