About this listen

Another audiobook in the Tommy & Tuppence series.

It is World War II, and while the RAF struggles to keep the Luftwaffe at bay, Britain faces an even more sinister threat from ‘the enemy within’ – Nazis posing as ordinary citizens.

With pressure mounting, the Intelligence service appoints two unlikely spies, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford. Their mission: to seek out a man and a woman from among the colourful guests at Sans Souci, a seaside hotel. But this assignment is no stroll along the promenade. After all, N and M have just murdered Britain’s finest agent…

Critic reviews

"As ingenious as ever." (Guardian)
All stars

I enjoyed the story - had guessed one of the two villains in advance but the other one fooled me. The Tommy & Tuppance stories are new to me and I was initially surprised at the time gap between books two and three, but actually the premise of them feeling too old to be useful in WWII and seeking excitement again worked really well.

The icing on the cake was the narration. Hugh Fraser's range in this, from babbling toddler to the breathless monologue of a nervous eye-witness, is incredible. I always enjoy listening to his voice but thought this one was particularly well acted.

Hugh Fraser's narration really makes it!

I love the Tommy and Tuppence series, more action in genre than Christies more notorious works but full of her trademark twists and turns. Hugh Fraser narrates this book excellently.

Another great story from Christie's dynamic duo!

I laughed out loud in places, though probably at things that Agatha Christie did not intend to be comical ... my favourite character was Betty (naturally) and I thought that Hugh Fraser was a perfect narrator ... no doubt I shall listen to this again ...

Really enjoyed this story

Not quite as light as the previous tommy&tuppence, but they're funny, clever and in love.

Full of twists and turns, keeps you wanting more

It was an absolute pleasure listening to this book by the one and only Captain Hastings :)

Loved it!

I love a good 'Aggy' - her unabridged descriptions and dialogues knocks the spots of any abridged dramatizations when read well, and Hugh Fraser does them justice.

I'm just beginning to explore the Tommy and Tuppence series and this is a delight, peppered with digs at young people's sexism and assumptions about older people.

BUT...

Does Audible HAVE to come in so soon and so loud after the reading ends. IT'S VERY INTRUSIVE AND BREAKS THE SPELL!!!

An unabridged performance

In true Christie fashion, any one of the characters could be suspected. Even until the end there were surprises! Really well narrated too.

Twists and turns at every corner.
