Summary
An Audible Original multi-cast adaptation of Agatha Christie’s debut novel, THE MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR AT STYLES, starring Peter Dinklage as the legendary Hercule Poirot.
England, 1914. The world is at war. Captain Hastings, injured and shaken, is invited to Styles Court to recover. It’s a grand old country house - the family home of his old friend - and a perfect haven. Or so it seems. But in the blistering summer heat, trouble is afoot. Simmering tensions are tearing the family apart, and it all comes to a head in the most horrifying way. Emily Inglethorp, the wealthy matriarch of the family, is brutally murdered in the middle of the night. And nobody at Styles is above suspicion. Anyone could have killed Emily - from her ambitious American husband to her distinguished but troubled sons John and Lawrence, her old friend Evie Howard and young ward Cynthia Murdoch. Captain Hastings is desperate to solve the mystery and protect the family from the terrible speculation of the press. And he knows just the man they need: a brilliant Detective Hastings once knew, who just happens to be staying in the village. His insight and method are exceptional - and his suit is flawless. He goes by the name of Hercule Poirot.
Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones) leads an all-star cast as Agatha Christie’s famous detective in his first ever outing, with Himesh Patel (Yesterday) as Captain Hastings. Also starring Harriet Walter (Succession), Jessica Gunning (Baby Reindeer), Phil Dunster (Ted Lasso), Rob Delaney (Catastrophe), John Bradley (Game of Thrones), Vivian Oparah (Rye Lane) and Patsy Ferran (A Streetcar Named Desire).
Produced in Dolby Atmos, the production features an original score by Johnny Flynn.

Dinklage is as just good as you had hoped
Hopefully the first of many adaptations featuring Peter Dinklage as Hercule Poirot. Inspired casting, he delivers exactly as you’d hope, bringing both rigour and gentleness to his characterisation. Excellent performances all around. Could Audible be starting a new Christmas tradition?

cannot wait for more!
Peter Dinklage makes a fantastic poirot; familiar but distinctly different. The full cast makes for a full and satisfying story, and despite having seen and read this story many times in the past, still find it grips me
Really hoping for a raft of more!

So very well done
Poirot was very well executed. No pantomime antics from any of the cast. I thoroughly enjoyed this adaptation.
