Following your idols can be dangerous business, especially if you end up drinking a poisoned cocktail that was meant for them. Such is the case for poor Heather Babcock when she drops dead after sipping on her final daiquiri whilst rambling excitedly to Marina Gregg, a famed film star whom she has revered for years.

As suspicion over whom is responsible for attempting to poison the famous actress mounts, it is up to everybody’s favourite spinster detective Miss Marple to solve the mystery before the murderer strikes again. Sifting through the star’s long list of enemies however, is no easy task. Will the witty old lady find the motive for the act before the final curtain?

This plot driven radio dramatisation of another mind-boggling Agatha Christie mystery is a high quality, exciting audiobook experience from the BBC Crime collection. ‘The Mirror Crack’d from Side to Side’ on CD audiobook features the vocal talents of a number of distinguished actors, including Ian Lavender, Gayle Hunnicutt and James Laurenson, as well as the delightful June Whitfield who plays the part of Miss Marple.

All Agatha Christie titles are also available to download as audiobooks on MP3.
