From AudioFile
Agatha Christie launches the legendary career of Hercule Poirot with this classic tale of intrigue. Did one of the Cavendish brothers poison their stepmother, Mrs. Iglethorp, or was it her new husband? Nadia May reads with such a delightful English accent, intonation, and careful pacing that the suspense and drama build gradually. Each character is easily distinguishable and a treat to listen to, especially Poirot. This baffling tale with many characters is a bit difficult to follow but well worth the effort. The compulsion to discover the truth is motive enough for all listeners. S.C.A. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine--This text refers to theAudio Cassetteedition.

From the Publisher
An Audie Award winner for Best Mystery and nominee for Best Solo Narration of 1996.--This text refers to theAudio Cassetteedition.
The Roanoke Times, March 1997
"David Suchet portrayed Poirot on public television''sMystery; like there, his performance on these cassettes astutely captures the vain, winning character with his French expressions and European mannerisms. The Audio Partners acknowledges the importance of visualizing the layout of Styles by including a card diagram of the English manor house."--This text refers to theAudio Cassetteedition.
The Union Leader, July 1996
"One of the best books you''re probably going to hear...Agatha Christie was in top form in the 1920''s when this book first wowed its readers. What makes this book even more appealing is the outstanding performance by Suchet, who has become the definitive Poirot on Public Television''sMystery."--This text refers to theAudio Cassetteedition.
