Five Little Pigs: A Hercule Poirot Mystery Free Audiobook Download by Agatha Christie


The story follows retired detective Hercule Poirot, one of the most brilliant minds in the history of crime solving, who is called to a remote country manor to investigate a murder. The new owners of the property are convinced that their daughter was killed by pigs - so they want Mr. Poirot to get to the bottom of it. As his investigation unfolds, he has unconventional and humorous adventures with each member of the family, including their disgraced butler, as well as one of his very own cases from decades past.

In the first chapter, Hercule Poirot is hired to investigate a case of "suicide"--which he knows to be murder. In his investigation, he encounters a number of interesting characters and multiple suspects with motives for the crime.

It's the summer of 1926 and Hercule Poirot is feeling quite poorly. He fell from his horse, had a nasty argument with one of his regular guests, and has been plagued by headaches ever since he set foot back in the English countryside. People are beginning to notice that something is amiss with the great detective, but it's not until a note shows up at his house that Poirot finally realizes he needs to get out before he becomes another victim of the crime-ridden world in which he lives.

The murder of a wealthy woman, Mrs. Ackroyd, leads to the uncovering of a blackmail plot in which five men were paid to kill her husband. With the help of his friend, Hastings, Hercule Poirot sets out to investigate who these men are and their reasons for killing Mrs. Ackroyd.

This book is one of the most popular mystery novels ever written and has been adapted into several movies. It features an extraordinary cast of characters, including Hercule Poirot, Inspector Japp, Captain Hastings, Annetta Oldfield and Miss Lemon.

Agatha Christie's classic mystery Five Little Pigs tells of a wealthy family whose peace is disrupted when a corpse is found in the well-maintained garden of their estate.
