About this listen
A collection of short stories featuring the redoubtable ‘heart specialist’, Parker Pyne. This volume, in its contemporary Agatha Christie Collection livery, perfectly illustrates Agatha Christie’s critically–acclaimed foray into light-hearted, romantic mysteries.
Mrs Packington felt alone, helpless and utterly forlorn. But her life changed when she stumbled upon an advertisement in The Times which read: ‘ARE YOU HAPPY? IF NOT, CONSULT MR PARKER PYNE’.
Equally adept at putting together the pieces of a marriage or the fragments of a murder mystery, Mr Parker Pyne was possibly the world’s most unconventional private eye – and certainly its most charming.

Great stories and well read
I do love a good murder mystery (or a few in this case) to listen to and Hugh Fraser reads the Parker Pyne stories brilliantly. Agatha Christie keeps you guessing as always. Entertaining and good value for money.

Superb narration as always
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the wonderful Hugh Fraser narrate this series of short stories. It would be lovely to see Parker Pyne on the television screen but I would miss the wonderful character voices of Mr Fraser. I could happily listen to him reciting the telephone book! Even if it was in different voices!

Brilliant collection, excellent narrator
Parker Pyne is one statistician you must get acquainted with! Love this collection of short stories. Will become a much listened to audiobook.
Hugh Fraser is perfect pitch as usual.

Bite size Christie
Cute stories, excellently narrated by Hugh Fraser as usual. While they're cute, they're not nearly close to Christie's regular levels.
If you, like me, have consumed basically everything done by her, this will be a nice addition to that pool of works. If you're new to Agatha Christie you should pick some of her classics to get a better and more fair feel of her writing and storytelling.
