When Lord Edgware Dies a most unnatural death, detective Hercule Poirot must solve a most confounding conundrum: if the obvious killer, the slain peer’s spiteful wife, didn’t do it, who did? A classic from the queen of mystery, Agatha Christie.

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.

The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

I’ve read a lot of Christie’s and would count this one as a favorite. It’s so convoluted and it’s loaded with so many red herrings that I don’t know how a reader could solve the case, but no matter. Loads of interesting characters and a few actual laugh out loud moments. Fun!

Twisty, fun story

I've been listening to a lot of Hercule Poirot stories, but this one is a little predictable. Still enjoyable, especially with the wonderful narration, but I'd recommend people don't begin their introduction to Christie's Poirot novels with this one.

Good, but not my favourite

Love it. One of the best — maybe a perfect mystery. Hugh Fraser is the best. I wish he could do them all.

Great- perfect story, perfect performance!
