Philomel Cottage

Written by Agatha Christie

Narrated by Hugh Fraser

The recently married Alix Martin is obsessed with a recurring dream of her new husband’s murder. Each time she can see the murderer clearly, and it’s the mild-mannered man she had previously been engaged to, taking his revenge. But, what’s worse is that at the end of the dream she thanks the murderer. Perplexed, Alix tries to calm herself by spending time in the garden of her picturesque cottage. But her gardener confuses her further by wishing her well on her trip to London—a trip which Alix knows nothing about. Now Alix is scared: is the gardener imagining things, or is she?

Reviews for Philomel Cottage

[Clare Gaia Russell · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I don't wonder the critics referred to Dame Agatha as "The Queen of Suspense."

[Rupa FitzGerald · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Very suspenseful. I was completely riveted. So great to come across stories of Agatha Christie's that I had not read before.
