About this audiobook
A repugnant Amercian widow is killed during a trip to Petra…
Among the towering red cliffs of Petra, like some monstrous swollen Buddha, sat the corpse of Mrs Boynton. A tiny puncture mark on her wrist was the only sign of the fatal injection that had killed her.
With only 24 hours available to solve the mystery, Hercule Poirot recalled a chance remark he’d overheard back in Jerusalem: ‘You see, don’t you, that she’s got to be killed?’ Mrs Boynton was, indeed, the most detestable woman he’d ever met…

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/57 last chapters have been read twice. Otherwise, excellent, interesting twist. I was sure all along that Sarah was a daughter of that poor maid and executed her revenge. Wrong again!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved the way Monsieur Poirot solved the crime. Another great adventure
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Intriguing narrative, evocative descriptions of desert landscapes, and the genius with which Christie creates fully rounded characters, all the while maintaining a discourse of subtle social critique, perhaps even more relevant today than at the time the novel was written. Another beautiful reading by Hugh Fraser.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great, the story has everything in it: mystery mixed with a spell of horror and deep psychology in front of an exotic backdrop. Beautifully read by Hugh Fraser. Thanks!
