Publisher's Summary

First released on cassette tape in 1987, these archive recordings feature Joan Hickson as Miss Marple reading Agatha Christie’s The Thirteen Problems.

When the Tuesday Night Club meets in St Mary Mead, the weekly conversation turns to unsolved crimes. The stories of murder and intrigue are often so wicked that they have confounded even Scotland Yard. But there is one person present who has observed enough about human nature to be more than a match for the most perspicacious investigator…

Recorded more than 35 years ago while the BBC was filming the series Miss Marple, these thirteen short stories were read by Joan Hickson when she was 80 years old and capture the warmth and nostalgia of a bygone age.

Due to the archival nature of these recordings, the quality may vary. Newer recordings of The Thirteen Problems, read by Juliet Stevenson, are also available.

Critic Reviews

"The plots are so good that one marvels...most of them would have made a full-length thriller." (Daily Mirror)

Great audio book

Joan Hickson is a great narrator, very easy to listen to. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook, a series of short murder mysteries.

My least preferred narrator

Wonderful tales and brain teasers but Joan H has such an awful pretentious way of reading and does a poor job at characters other than herself. It’s a shame. She’s my least favourite Marlow as well. All in all worth the listen

Classic Christie!!

The Thirteen Problems is a collection of some of Agatha Christie’s most popular short stories. The Joan Hickson brings the stories to life with her tradition style. The reader is transported to be a “fly in the wall” at the various dinner parties etc. Fantastic!!!

It is a brilliant connection of short but connected stories, fantastically narrated by the wonderful Joan Hickson.
