If you’re going to the FanX convention in Salt Lake City on Saturday, you can see me twice, if you like. Three other narrators and I will be in a panel on audiobooks. We will also do a live performance of Agatha Christie’s short mystery: The Mystery of Marsden Manor. I’ll be there not only in person, but in costume as Hercule Poirot, a la the 1982 version of Evil Under the Sun, with Peter Ustinov as Poirot. If you come, please say hi!
You can listen to The Mystery of Marsden Manor and the full collection of Agatha Christie’s short stories: Poirot Investigates in the Mystery category at the website at classictalesaudiobooks.com. Or, if you have the Audiobook Library Card, it’s in the Mystery category there, as well.
Today’s story first appeared in the Strand magazine, alongside the Sherlock Holmes mysteries, and also featured illustrations by Sydney Paget. I hope you like it.
