Publisher Description
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.
Amy 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. 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.
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.

Such fun
I know I’m being terribly lazy, but it is such fun to go to sleep being read a bedtime story (as an adult). I put on iBooks set to one hour and let myself be lulled to sleep. The narrator isn’t boring, don’t get me wrong, but her voice isn’t grating either. Just perfect. Thank you.
Marred by Performance
Narrator Massey’s voice is lovely, however I was continually distracted by her difficulty with accents. Poirot sounding German and Americans sounding robotic. This may or may not effect my feeling that this is not the strongest Christie novel. Big disappointment.
