The inimitable Agatha Christie intrigues, surprises, and delights with The Mysterious Mr. Quin—a riveting collection of short stories centered around the enigmatic Harley Quin, whose unpredictable comings and goings are usually a good indication that something is about to happen…and rarely for the best.

It had been a typical New Year's Eve party. But as midnight approaches, Mr. Satterthwaite—a keen observer of human nature—senses that the real drama of the evening is yet to unfold. And so it proves when a mysterious stranger knocks on the door. Who is this Mr. Quin?

Mr. Satterthwaite's new friend is an enigma. He seems to appear and disappear almost like a trick of the light. In fact, the only consistent thing about him is that his presence is always an omen—sometimes good, but sometimes deadly. . . .

Wonderful performance, as always, by Hugh Fraser, but the stories were a little bit predictable.

Great performance, somewhat predictable stories.

So many different well drawn characters Christie is so under appreciated. She could have been like Sherlock Holmes but her protagonists don’t usually need chases or fist fights

Sentimental romantic atmospheric plots with relatable characters

Though Poirot and Miss Marple are probably two of the most beloved characters in Christie's Works. However, the lesser known Harley Quin definitely has an equal (albeit unconventional) power of solving crimes. Mr. Quin, like another pair of Christie's sleuths Tommy and Tuppence, is so not your average private detective. There is an air of mystery about him, yet he is so personable that you'd like to just sit and talk with him like a friend. And it is in doing so, that the truth reveals itself.

As always, Hugh Fraser does a wonderful job in giving a vivid performance. The exchanges between Mr. Satterthwaite and Mr. Quin are the highlights of this audiobook.
