Product Description:
Agatha Christie's most popular and best-selling whodunit in print and audio, And Then There Were None, was rated tenth by the Mystery Writers of America Top 100 Mystery Novels of All Time. Ten people arrive on Indian Island off England’s southwest coast, lured to a mansion by invitations from a mysterious host. As one guest after another is murdered, terror mounts in Christie’s most popular work, an elaboration of the famous children’s rhyme 'Ten Little Indians.'

Whenever I'm going to be doing something labor intensive, but not very exciting, I enjoy listening to an audio book. Some people like to point out every instance of failure as a novelist they can think of regarding Agatha Christie. I, on the other hand, choose to overlook any defects in her stories and just enjoy them. When you add the narration by Hugh Fraser it makes the experience all that much more satisfying. I did not find any defects or glitches in this recording and Fraser has a warmth and intimacy to his voice which makes it seem that he is right there in the room with you, almost telling you the story personally.
Ten people were invited to Indian Island, Sticklehaven, Devon. Ten people who didn't recognize the name of their host (or in some cases, their employer) but who went nevertheless for their own personal reasons. Everything seemed to be going well until the recording was played which accused each of them of the crime of murder. In each bedroom was a large framed piece of parchment, a poem which most of them recognized from their childhood. When the deaths began to happen, they realized that the poem was put there as a warning of what was about to happen. And they were trapped on the island.
Even if you have read this story by Agatha Christie you will still enjoy the narration by Hugh Fraser. He is so permanently linked in my memory with the Hercule Poirot stories presented on PBS that I feel as if I am visiting with two old friends, Fraser and Christie. Highly recommended by a Christie fan and a fan of audio recordings.

I love Agatha Christie's book and Hugh Fraser is a great narrator, but the poor reproduction on the cd is disappointing. I sent my very first copy back thinking I just got a bad couple of disks. The new disks had the same skips and pops in the same places. Selling something as new in this condition is at best an unfortunate oversight and at worse deceptive.

And Then There Were None, the brilliant masterwork by the much imitated Agatha Christie is a complicated yet accessible murder mystery. Ten guests arrive at an island, each with a different secret, and each uniquely mysterious. When all the guests have gathered, a mysterious voice, U.N. Owen??? indicts each for a crime. The bloodletting follows. Good luck solving this mystery. The Denouement is nothing short of brilliant.
Required reading or listening for Mystery fans. A 5 star classic!
Hugh Fraser does an excellent job with his narration of this novel. He captures the mood and angst perfectly, and does a great job with the various characters.

"And Then There Were None" is one of the best audio books I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. Hugh Fraser gives what can only be described as a masterful performance. His reading is sumptuous, scary, and above all, intelligent. The story moves briskly and chillingly toward the shocking conclusion. Even if you have already read the book (as I have), Fraser's telling must be heard to be believed. This is the rare audio book that you cannot turn off. I highly recommend!!
