À propos de cet audio
Tommy and Tuppence are at it again. This detective couple can never walk away from a mystery and these two later novels are no exception.
By the Pricking of My Thumbs: When Tommy and Tuppence visit an elderly aunt in her gothic nursing home, they think nothing of her mistrust of the doctors; after all, Ada is a very difficult old lady.
But when Mrs. Lockett mentions a poisoned mushroom stew and Mrs. Lancaster talks about "something behind the fireplace", Tommy and Tuppence find themselves caught up in a spine-chilling adventure that could spell death for either of them...
Postern of Fate: Tommy and Tuppence Beresford have just become the proud owners of an old house in an English village. Along with the property, they have inherited some worthless bric-a-brac, including a collection of antique books. While rustling through a copy of The Black Arrow, Tuppence comes upon a series of apparently random underlinings.
However, when she writes down the letters, they spell out a very disturbing message: "Mary Jordan did not die naturally." And 60 years after their first murder, Mary Jordan's enemies are still ready to kill....
Don’t miss out on the rest of the daring couple’s adventures and other Agatha Christie mysteries!

fan of Christie but not this
These two books are rambling and no brilliant twists at the end. Disappointing work from a master.

Great stories, fun characters
I absolutely love Tommy and Tuppence, so this was a great bundle. Here they are in their prime - much older than in our first meeting, but still just as full of life and they balance each other out well. The stories keep you on the edge of you seat with plenty of twists and turns. Hugh Fraser is brilliant as always - one of my favourite narrators. This bundle is a great deal for one credit! I wish there were more like it. (I have downloaded all of the Agatha Christie Bundles now.) #Audible1

I really enjoyed the “by the pricking of my thumb” but the other story was very boring.

just alright compared to the others in thos series
preferred pricking of my thumbs over postern of fate. found the narrator either repeating lines or referring to the female character as him quite often, just a little distractions like this took away from the story and found it took a long time to pick up. but it's still an agatha christie novel and was still good, just not her best
