About this listen

Beautiful Caroline Crale was convicted of poisoning her husband, but just like the nursery rhyme, there were five other "little pigs" who could have done it: Philip Blake (the stockbroker), who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist), who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcee), who had her roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess), who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister), who cried all the way home.

Sixteen years later, Caroline's daughter is determined to prove her mother's innocence, and Poirot just can't get that nursery rhyme out of his mind.

This title was previously published as Murder in Retrospect.

Vintage Christie

Engrossing as all her other novels, Agatha Christie is and will remain the queen of murder mysteries. Hugh Fraser's rendition is excellent too!

Wonderfully constructed mystery

I had read this book years ago, but decided to reread it again now in audio format. The narrator was incredible, I'm now looking forward to listening to the other Poirot books!
