Gipsy's Acre was a truly beautiful upland site with views out to sea, and in Michael Rogers it stirred a child-like fantasy. There, amongst the dark fir trees, he planned to build a house, find a girl, and live happily ever after. But as he left the village, a shadow of menace hung over the land, for this was the place where accidents happened. Perhaps Michael should have heeded the locals' warnings: "There's no luck for them as meddles with Gipsy's Acre."

Too Little Provided
I love myself some Agatha Christie Mysteries. I try, but I haven't won a case yet! This production didn't do her justice. It didn't include enough of the mystery to make it enjoyable. It skipped too much. Just didn't help connect the dots. More frustrating than enjoyable.

Butchered AC classics
Entertaining performances but the experience was marred by the absolute butchering of AC's classic stories. Some adaptation or changes is ok but these were bent and twisted to be 'modern' and somewhat 'fashionable' to a crude degree.
Some performances overdone and lots of erratic screaming that really wasn't necessary.
Great if you are not familiar with AC's work. Steer clear of you are.

Not what I was expecting
The acting and narration were great. The stories simply weren't interesting. Each mystery lasted about a half hour, and was populated by 2 to 4 characters - making the plot easy to decipher. In addition to this, plots were updated for modern consumption (cell phones and internet). I was not impressed.

Terrible way to treat Agatha Christie’s work
Agatha Christie created such great stories, I don’t know why they had to ‘update’ them in such a crude, ham fisted manner. They kept the general style of talking but just stuffed a few ‘current’ references in e.g. George Bush and the war in Afghanistan. It doesn’t work at all and wasn’t clear before purchasing the audio book that the stories had been spoiled in this way. They have also ramped up the misery in the sad bits so instead of feeling that you have enjoyed the adventure you are left feeling rather gloomy, especially if you listen to a few at a time.

Repackaged version of 2010 dramatisations
I was a bit disappointed in finding out that this is just a repackaged version of the BBC dramatisations that came out in 2010 . Some of them are good but some of them are just fair . Perhaps it is because I just didn't like some of the stories . The only good thing about this audio is that you get all 12 stories at once instead of having to purchase them separately on this same site .

Not expected
Seemed to be more focused on underlying sexual tensions than the actual mystery plot. Disappointed to be halfway through one and it switched to focus on the main characters bedroom activities, but it wasn't even clear what the mystery was supposed to be in the first place. Wish I could un-buy this book. Did not have the standard that I'd expect with something using Agatha Christie's name.
