About this listen

Murder, mystery and majesty combine in this new Special Edition of the Queen of Crime's very best short stories set in London.

Agatha Christie is recognized throughout the world as the writer of remarkable country house mysteries and ingenious murders set in faraway countries. Yet many of her books and stories were set in the city she new best and for many years called home: London.

From Poirot's flat in Whitehaven Mansions to Scotland Yard, the Old Bailey to Harley Street, Lyons Tea Rooms to the Savoy, Paddington Station to the London Underground, Agatha Christie knew and loved London, and mined it for its rich seam of storytelling opportunities.

100 years after the first publication of 'Traitor Hands', the short story that became 'Witness for the Prosecution', this collection includes this original thriller, along with eleven other London mysteries featuring all the Christie faithfuls: Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, Tommy and Tuppence, Harley Quin, Parker Pyne and Ariadne Oliver.

Join Christie’s iconic characters on their adventures around London:

The Affair at the Victory Ball

The Tuesday Night Club

The Case of the Discontented Soldier

The Adventure of the Clapham Cook

Traitor Hands

A Fairy in the Flat

The Kidnapped Prime Minister

The Listerdale Mystery

The Case of the Caretaker

Critic reviews

'Her work is a cocktail of orderly settings and deep malignity, of comfiness and coldness, and at its heart it asks one of the most basic questions of all, modernity’s recurring preoccupation: who are you?' John Lanchester, London Review of Books
