Editorial Reviews
From AudioFile
For Agatha Christie fans, this delightful and amusing revisit to the classic Tommy and Tuppence mysteries is enhanced by the listening experience. James Warwick captures the two detectives as the listener gets to join in the fun of figuring out whodunit. From the Russian spies to the dapper British bourgeois, each character is delivered expertly, and it's easy to follow the action as the partners in crime alternately solve each puzzle and try to outdo, not only the criminal, but each other. Although first published in 1929, this Tommy and Tuppence still captures the imagination. For mystery buffs it's a "must-have" for the audiobook shelf.

Book Description
When the British Secret Service asks them to take over the International Detective Agency—a suspected Bolshevik spy information drop—Tommy and Tuppence jump at the chance. Told to watch for "blue letters with a Russian stamp" and visitors mentioning the number "16," they nonetheless have time for a variety of cases as they pose as the agency’s director and secretary. As an amateur private detective, Tommy takes inspiration from and impersonates other great detectives from crime fiction. While fulfilling their role for British Intelligence, they breeze their way through 15 other cases, solving murder mysteries, a jewel robbery, and rounding up gangs of smugglers and counterfeiters. Originally published in 1929, this exciting whodunit is dramatically read by perennial favorite James Warwick.
