About this listen

Still in the formative years of his career, Hercule Poirot faces a most taxing case: who killed Lord Cronshaw? Was Coco Courtenay’s death on the same night a mere coincidence? And did she deliberately take an overdose of cocaine?

No sooner has Poirot revealed his astonishing powers of deduction than he is faced with seventeen other mysteries to test his soon-to-be-famous ‘little grey cells’.

As a matter of courtesy to a group of young people, he endeavours to solve the gruesome murder of a woman whose body they have stumbled upon whilst locked out of their flat, and with his usual precision and elan he discovers exactly how ‘Mary, Mary quite contrary’ makes her garden grow…

A great selection of intriguing short mysteries!!

These short Poirot stories were really intriguing, charmingly written, and wonderfully narrated by David Suchet. The whole thing combined to make a delightful collection of clever, witty and interesting stories.

way better then I thought

I usually don't like when there is more than 1 narrator but this was a delight.

David Suchet and Hugh Fraser makes a lovely pair.

Poirot's Early Cases are a lot of fun

These short stories are each a self-contained mystery. The narrators both do a wonderful job. This collection was a lot of fun to listen to.

Mon vieux

A classic read. After growing up with David Suchet in the TV series I cannot imagine anyone else who could read these beautiful short stories.
