内容简介

Tommy & Tuppence are hired to track down wartime spies at a seaside resort...It is World War II, and while the RAF struggles to keep the Luftwaffe at bay, Britain faces an even more sinister threat from 'the enemy within' -- Nazis posing as ordinary citizens. With pressure mounting, the Intelligence service appoints two unlikely spies, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford. Their mission: to seek out a man and a woman from among the colourful guests at Sans Souci, a seaside hotel. But this assignment is no stroll along the promenade. After all, N and M have just murdered Britain's finest agent!

From Library Journal

Middle-aged Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, too old to fight and too young to knit, are dismayed to find out that the British government of World War II has little interest in their detecting and spy-catching abilities. Then, almost incidentally, they are asked to spot a traitor, believed to be living at a rural guesthouse. But the place is full of harmless eccentrics: elderly ladies, retired military men, a hypochondriac and his colorless wife, a young mother, and a German refugee. The Beresfords invent personalities and elaborate traps, identify the imposter, and prevent an invasion. The strengths of this Christie "cozy" are the exuberant charm, intelligence, and enthusiasms of the central characters. Middle-aged they may be, but inside Tommy and Tuppence are still the same young adventurers who chased criminals and spies in post-Great War London. James Warwick does a highly competent, nicely unobtrusive job of reading this title, which is likely to be popular with fans of golden age mysteries. Recommended for moderate to large public libraries. I. Pour-El, Des Moines Area Community Coll., Boone, IA

FromAudioFile

This mystery classic, even among Christie's oeuvre, will be a treat for listeners who appreciate the high camp of Christie's idiosyncratic characters and her careful plotting. A cryptic message sets the duo of Tommy and Tuppence Beresford off after a master spy settled in a seaside English village. James Warwick, who has played Tommy for TV and film, sets the atmosphere of menace and suspicion surrounding the "fifth column" of German espionage. Warwick's overplaying of the minor characters makes the story seem too staged. The variety of accents just gets in his way, and he can't seem to fully engage listeners. All the grand heroism and disguises are entertaining, nonetheless, but there are better Christie capers.
