About this audiobook
In appearance Hercule Poirot hardly resembled an ancient Greek hero. Yet – reasoned the detective – like Hercules he had been responsible for ridding society of some of its most unpleasant monsters.
So, in the period leading up to his retirement, Poirot made up his mind to accept just twelve more cases: his self-imposed ‘Labours’. Each would go down in the annals of crime as a heroic feat of deduction.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is probably the least appealing short story series of Agatha Christie. It's still better than 95% of writings of various authors within the mystery genre of the last few decades...
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This has become one of my Poirot favourites, and to think I held off reading it for two years. Surprisingly wonderful!
