All very well played roles, of course wonderfully written (being Christie ) however it could have used a narrator of some sort setting the scene in between the parts of the Dramatis Personae (Especially at the very beginning, as it jumps straight into the dialogue without any preamble)

A man comes to a house where a murder has just happened. His car broke down and he’s looking for help but gets swept up in the investigation. I listened to the radio drama on LibriVox (freedom boons) and it was very well done.

very interesting story, kept me guessing til the end. I loved the Welsh accents.
no narrator and bad VAs
Jennifer Kieljan
there is no narrator telling us we changed scene and 2 va were very hard too understand, one toohard. he seemed indian which is odd for the time of recording. couldn't understand what these 2 guts (police officers?) were saying.

It’s the first book from the author where I guessed the ending correctly 😂😂. It was definitely a lot of fun.
Quite apropos. The guest was quite unexpected.
Odd One Out
A fascinating story that was well delivered. It could have been longer.
