About this listen
A new CD audio edition of the Agatha Christie thriller, packaged in the stylish new series livery to match the PBs. Read by Emilia Fox.
When a number of leading scientists disappear without trace, concern grows within the international intelligence community. Are they being kidnapped? Blackmailed? Brainwashed?
One woman appears to have the key to the mystery. Unfortunately, Olive Betteron now lies in a hospital bed, dying from injuries sustained in a Moroccan plane crash.
Meanwhile, in a Casablanca hotel room, Hilary Craven prepares to take her own life. But her suicide attempt is about to be interrupted by a man who will offer her an altogether more thrilling way to die…

atypical Christie but very absorbing.
This is a truly odd book. Set within the context of the cold war, it held some excellent characterisation, esoecually if the central femake character. It contains some of that toe-curlingly dated Christie racism, eg of the Africans and especially a man described dusparagingly as 'yellow' , but the plot development is very engaging and well thought out. I dusliked EmiliaFox's acxents for non-English /Amerucan charcters - very geating and stereotyped -and it did detract from my enjoyment to some degree.

Destination Unknown
Good, not as great as Poirot, but as a stand alone novel it I enjoyed it. Brilliantly narrated by Emilia Fox who brings unique voices to each character.

A good version
I've always loved this book, and this is a good reading by Emilia Fox. Good characterisation and she's easy to listen to.

Agatha Christie just got better!
Have been an Agatha Christie fan from a very young age reading her books time & time again, but due to eye problems I listened to several of my favourite A.Christie books through Audible read by Emelia Fox...she has put life & dare I say even more enjoyment into them all once again!
Keep it up Audible & Emelia....

An enjoyable story.
I enjoyed this Agatha Christie story. Entertaining with enough twists to keep it entertaining. I guessed a few of the plot lines but still had enough surprises to entertain. I enjoyed the different view of travel just after the war that modern authors would miss.
