Cat Among PidgeonsMay 24, 2008 I am a great Agatha Christie fan and have all her books. I am very busy now so do not have time to sit down and reread them. It is great fun to listen to them in the car as I travel from place to place. I really cannot get enough of them

Agatha Christie has been my favorite author since I read one of her books (The Body in the Library) for a book report in high school. My english teacher told me that if I enjoyed the book, I would read all of her books. She was so right. I have read every one of her books more than once and I have them all in my bookcase. This book is one of my favorites and now that I have the CD I can listen to it whenever I am in my car. Agatha Christie will never go out of style. She is the best mystery writer that I have ever read. Her characters (Hercule Poirot & Jane Marple) are unique and her plot lines are complex. I recommend this CD highly to anyone that enjoyes a good mystery!
