Showing results for "Hercules" in Police Procedurals

Lady Athelinda Playford has planned a house party at her mansion in Clonakilty, County Cork, but it is no ordinary gathering. As guests arrive, Lady Playford summons her lawyer to make an urgent change to her will - one she intends to announce at dinner that night. She has decided to cut off her two children without a penny and leave her fortune to someone who has only weeks to live.... Among Lady Playford's guests are two men she has never met - the famous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and Inspector Edward Catchpool of Scotland Yard.

The house guests at Styles seemed perfectly pleasant to Captain Hastings. There was his own daughter, Judith; an inoffensive ornithologist called Norton; dashing Mr Allerton; brittle Miss Cole; Doctor Franklin and his fragile wife, Barbara; Nurse Craven; Colonel Luttrell and his charming wife, Daisy; and the charismatic Boyd-Carrington. So Hastings was shocked to learn from Hercule Poirot's declaration that one of them was a five-times murderer.

The two greatest detectives of the twentieth century come together in this incredible collection. This audiobook includes unabridged recordings of Agatha Christie's first 6 titles featuring Hercule Poirot novels, as well as the complete collection of Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes novels and stories, all read by the award-winning David Rintoul and Jonathan Keeble.

Hercule Poirot kann's nicht lassen. Die berühmte Autorin Lady Athelinda hat eine Schar von Gästen auf ihr Landgut eingeladen. Da verkündet die Lady, dass sie ihre Familie enterben und alles ihrem Sekretär Joseph vermachen wird. Dieser ist genauso schockiert wie die Verwandten, doch kurz darauf wird Joseph tot aufgefunden. Zufällig ist auch Hercule Poirot unter den Gästen und zusammen mit dem jungen Polizisten Edward Catchpool versucht er, den Mörder zu entlarven.
