Overall Performance: Narration Rating: Story Rating:. "I love a good murder mystery on a cold winter night and Agatha Christie NEVER leaves me disappointed! This one had it all- interesting location (an archeological dig), lots of suspects with interesting motives, and it left me with no idea who the murderer was until Hercule Poirot revealed all! With one spot of blood as his only clue, Hercule Poirot must embark on a journey not just across the desert, but into the darkest crevices of the human soul to unravel a mystery which taxes even his remarkable powers. Her patient's bizarre visions and nervous terror seem unfounded, but as the oppressive tension in the air thickens, events come to a terrible climax-in murder. Īmy Leatheram has never felt the lure of the mysterious East, but when she travels to an ancient site deep in the Iraqi desert to nurse the wife of a celebrated archaeologist, events prove stranger than she could ever have imagined. Suspicious events at a Middle Eastern archaeological excavation site intrigue the great Hercule Poirot as he investigates Murder in Mesopotamia, a classic murder mystery from Agatha Christie.
