About this listen

Christmas Eve, and the Lee family's reunion is shattered by a deafening crash of furniture and a high-pitched wailing scream. Upstairs, the tyrannical Simeon Lee lies dead in a pool of blood, his throat slashed.

When Hercule Poirot offers to assist, he finds an atmosphere not of mourning but of mutual suspicion. It seems everyone had their own reason to hate the old man....

This title was previously published as Murder for Christmas and A Holiday for Murder.

One of Christie's best Poirots

How amazing to have a Poirot story performed by Hastings himself - Hugh Fraser - who is excellent by the way, even capturing David Suchet's Poirot accent perfectly. An interesting story set over a few days at Christmas in a country house about how money can tear a family apart. Don't miss the LWT TV movie version with beautiful locations, costumes, and sets with Suchet in action - Enjoy!
