Description
What intrigued Poirot about the case was the time factor. Although in a state of shock, Sheila clearly remembered having heard a cuckoo clock strike 3.00. Yet, the four other clocks in the living room all showed the time as 4.13. Even more strange: only one of these clocks belonged to the owner of the house.
Commentaires
"A sure-fire attention-gripper naturally." ( Saturday Review)
"Superlative Christie...extremely ingenious." ( The Bookman)
"Here is the grand-manner detective story in all its glory." ( The New York Times)

Disappointing
The aging Hercule Poirot makes guest appearances as an armchair consultant, but since the other two detectives are quite charmless, this isn't Agatha Christie's most interesting work. Rather disappointed.

The Clocks
This book has me gripped from chapter one, I usually listen to a book at night and will fall asleep - I had to turn this one off to get some sleep as the story line had me gripped. - I also loved the change of voices, well done and thank you

Solider Krimi mit Mord und Spionage, gut gelesen
Hugh Fraser (Cpt. Hastings in der BBC-Serie) liest das Buch witzig und charmant, die verschiedenen Stimmen setzt er sehr gut um. Besonders seine Imitation von David Suchetts Poirot ist hörenswert. Außerdem hat er ein gutes Tempo und die richtige Anzahl an Pausen.
Der Krimi selbst hat zunächst zwei verschiedene Handlungsstränge, die aber am Ende verknüpft werden. Es gibt auch eine Liebesgeschichte zwischen dem Helden Colin (der Poirot zu den Ermittlungen im Mordfall zuzieht, selbst aber eigentlich für den Spionagefall zuständig ist), und der Entdeckerin der Leiche; sie ist aber kaum ausgearbeitet und dient nur dazu, zu erklären, warum Colin sich überhaupt auf Dauer mit dem Mord beschäftigt. Insgesamt sind die Figuren recht statisch geraten.
Das Ausgangsszenario ist spannend, die weitere Handlung hat aber teilweise Längen. Sehr schön geraten sind dafür die kleinen Vignetten, die Christie zeichnet, wenn Colin die verschiedenen Nachbarn besucht.
Insgesamt durchaus ein hörenswertes Buch, wenn auch sicher nicht Agatha Christies bestes.

Sehr gut gelesen mittelgute Geschichte.
Den Sprecher fand ich fabelhaft. Die Geschichte ist nicht ganz toll, wie ich die klassischen Geschichten finde. Spionage oder andere politische Anspielungen konnte A.C. meiner Meinung nach nicht so gut wie Gesellschaftsbeschreibungen. Aber trotzdem kommt der typische Poirot Stil ganz zur Geltung.
