About this listen

In one of London's most elegant shops, a decorative doll in green velvet adopts some rather human, and sinister, traits....

A country gentleman is questioned about a murder that has yet to be committed....

While summoning spirits, a medium is drawn closer to the world of the dead than she ever imagined possible....

In a small country church, a dying man's last word, sanctuary, becomes both an elegy and a clue to a crime.

No Story Chapterisation -I wouldn't buy this again

The performances are good as are the stories (some better than others), but proper labelling of chapters are important to me. This collection does not have the different stories listed. It's only listed as Chapter 1, 2 etc. So if you're looking for a particular story, you'll have to search through the chapters til you find the one you want.
Chapter 1 = Double Sin (Hugh Fraser)
Chapter 2 = The Wasps' Nest (Hugh Fraser)
Chapter 3 = The Theft Of The Royal Ruby, Pt 1 (Simon Vance)
Chapter 4 = The Theft Of The Royal Ruby, Pt 2 (Simon Vance)
Chapter 5 = The Dressmaker's Doll (Anna Massey)
Chapter 6 = Greenshaw's Folly (Isla Blair)
Chapter 7 = The Double Clue (Hugh Fraser)
Chapter 8 = The Last Séance (Christopher Lee)
Chapter 9 = Sanctuary (Joan Hickson)
The performances by Christopher Lee, Simon Vance and Joan Hickson were my least favourite. Simon Vance is usually a favourite of mine, but not as Poirot.
There have been a couple of collections of stories I've bought from audible that are like this and I won't bother buying any more of these as proper labelling is a hit and miss. One thing I wish I could see if the list of narrators at the end of the Chapter label.. maybe similar to how I do it or another way.
EDIT: I noticed that stories #1, 2, and 7 sounded like Hugh Fraser and not David Suchet as credited, so I contacted the publisher to see if i was right. And they came back to say that indeed it was Hugh Fraser, though they weren't sure how David Suchet was credited. They also advised they would be notifying Audible about this as well. So I changed the narrator's name for my review.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
