Sparkling Cyanide

By: Agatha Christie

Narrated by: Hugh Fraser

A brand new CD audio editon of Agatha Christie’s classic thriller.

Features the recurring character Colonel Race from Death on the Nile, Cards on the Table and The Man in the Brown Suit.

Six people sit down to dinner at a table laid for seven. In front of the empty place is a sprig of rosemary – in solemn memory of Rosemary Barton who died at the same table exactly one year previously.

No one present on that fateful night would ever forget the woman’s face, contorted beyond recognition – or what they remembered about her astonishing life.

Critic reviews

“The denoument will probably come as a surprise to nine readers out of ten”
New York Times

“SPARKLING CYANIDE is the one … which I should take with me to a desert island; for I find in it a seriousness and a psychological insight unparalleled in the author’s other works.’ Times Literary Supplement

Agatha Christie was written to be read by Hugh Fraser

I’m such a fan of Agatha Christie and love that I can re visit my old favourites using audible.. the voice is so important to set the tone of the book and Hugh Fraser is so perfect to bring the characters to life.. I hope he does more :)
