This is a wonderful collection of stories with a recurring theme. Mr Quin comes into every story, but in a different way each time. It's fun to get a whole mystery in a short time. The reading is done well, with mostly good voices, though the portrayal of an American accent is terrible!
Dame Agatha Christie is best remembered for her wonderful detectives Miss Jane Marple and Hercule Poirot. However, two other memorable Christie characters were the crime solving (and sometimes crime preventing!) duo of Harley Quin and Mr. Satterthwaite. Mr. Satterthwaite is an elderly bachelor and student of the human personality. Harley Quin is an almost magical character who pops up in strange circumstances and challenges Mr. Satterthwaite to review what he thinks he knows about a situation and see just what happened that he didn't originally see.This wonderful audiobook contains a neat dozen of the Harley Quin stories, each of which are quite interesting, in a different sort of way. Hugh Fraser (who plays Captain Hastings in the excellent television productions of the Hercule Poirot mysteries) does an excellent job of reading for all of the characters. Now, if you are looking for Sherlock Holmes and neat logic, then you will be disappointed. But, if you are looking for some fascinatingly different mysteries, then this just might be the book for you. I highly recommend it!
Lots of fun. He is clearly a writer's character and would not do well on TV as Hercule and Ms. Marple do. But a lovely change of pace.Who else but Agatha could have 3 so different--and marvelous detectives!
