I listened to so many of these stories, although l may not be fun of all,but l do admire the writer, she was a smart lady.o yes l will continue to listen to many more, thank you.
Wow, I thought the robot voice "Jason Fraser" had really improved! Then I realized that this is the real deal. I think Hugh should sue those other guys.
Jason Fraser is an AI. I refuse to listen to it, as I ended up reading the transcript as a result of poor pronunciation, neglected following of punctuation, and irritating factors (such as reading dates of years).
Hey man, I would love to do the same and record audiobooks but with video to but I was wondering about the legal part of it. Like being sued for copyright.. Did you or do you have any problems regarding that ? Thank you
You'll have to do your own research and diligence for what you wanna do, every channel is different RUclipss has its own resources along with RUclips itself good luck on your journey
A good fictional from the regional story here: Captain Hook came across in his office someone whom ran into the place all afraid in frite, "Hurry, help I'm needing. There was a buglar who ran from the City Bank and stole my purse as he ran by!" Captain reassured the woman, "Madame, please have some water, while I go and get my notepad to jot down all you have to report here. Please be ready." This woman did her very best to reliance of herself to retell what happened. While Captain and Madame was speaking about and she was in the most of reporting what had happened, he saw this man ran by, "that's him!" Madame exclaimed! Captain ran outdoors and tackled him to the ground and keep his armed nozzled.

One of her early books Accident was only a short story, written by Agatha Christie which was first published in the Sunday Dispatch in 1929 in the UK. In 1934, the story was compiled and published as part of the collection The Listerdale Mystery. In the US, the story was not published until 1943 in the Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine and subsequently as part of the 1948 collection The Witness for the Prosecution and Other Stories. Police might have been not upto speed back then?

I totally did. Almost shouted: don't drink it!

Poor Mr. Evans in the book.
This reminded me of a rhyme from my childhood:
Willy was a chemist
But Willy is no more
For what he thought was H2O
Was H2SO4!

Sulfuric Acid? Excellent tale, Agatha outdid herself with this one.

The ending was not unexpected
"Accidents" do happen. 🤔
Why didnt they ask Evans ‼️😁

Read by Captain Hastings of Agatha Christie's TV Hercule Poirot
✔️
I wonder why she married her first husband...
Many of us wonder the same thing about ourselves.
Money?
All Ik is he left a woman for a lil girl. Yuck.
Good, she had a husband😃
She was married twice. Once to Archie Christie and one to Max Mallowan.
Wasn't this a bit simplistic?
The police would know she did it,
after finding the poison in his stomach.

@@alanfordyce I see. But Christie had studied poisons and the ways people used them for murders. If she knew, the police knew too. I think.
❤️🇦🇺🦘👋🏻😉👌
thanks listening
I thought so! Don’t like this story
creepy is it not?
HUGH FRASER
Too predictable.
