Hugh Fraser brings an immediately recognizable authority to Christie's Poirot — his six-hour of Peril at End House moves with the confidence of someone who has lived inside this world for decades, the timing of each revelation calibrated precisely. Three recommendations also feature Fraser's , and all ten draw from Christie's catalog, which means you're in a list built entirely around the same puzzle-construction logic and the same pleasure of watching Poirot dismantle a crime that seemed designed to be insoluble.
