About this listen

A classic Agatha Christie short story, available individually for the first time as an ebook.

After being fired from his uncle’s firm for his playboy antics, George Rowland decides to leave London on a whim. Waiting for his train to depart from Waterloo, a beautiful young girl dashes in and begs him to hide her. Wrapped up in the excitement he agrees to follow a suspicious looking man and guard a packet for her. But he soon finds that she isn’t quite as innocent as she looks…

Critic reviews

Christie, distilled.

Prefer a longer Christie story but I listened to this for the duration of my 5k run and it was a great distraction. And it includes a number of my favourite Christie ingredients too!

Beautifully narrated. A simple story but made for a pleasant hour. A new story for me
