Acerca de esta escucha
From the New York Times best-selling author of Moriarty and Trigger Mortis, this fiendishly brilliant, riveting thriller weaves a classic whodunit worthy of Agatha Christie into a chilling, ingeniously original modern-day mystery.
When editor Susan Ryeland is given the manuscript of Alan Conway's latest novel, she has no reason to think it will be much different from any of his others. After working with the best-selling crime writer for years, she's intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus Pünd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan's traditional formula has proved hugely successful. So successful that Susan must continue to put up with his troubling behavior if she wants to keep her job.
Conway's latest tale has Atticus Pünd investigating a murder at Pye Hall, a local manor house. Yes, there are dead bodies and a host of intriguing suspects, but the more Susan reads, the more she's convinced that there is another story hidden in the pages of the manuscript: one of real-life jealousy, greed, ruthless ambition, and murder.
Masterful, clever, and relentlessly suspenseful, Magpie Murders is a deviously dark take on vintage English crime fiction in which the listener becomes the detective.

Molly Gray is not like everyone else. She struggles with social skills and misreads the intentions of others.

Her unique character, along with her obsessive love of cleaning and proper etiquette, make her an ideal fit for the job.

The first audiobook which appeared in Georges Simenon's famous Maigret series, in a gripping new translation by David Bellos.Inevitably Maigret was a hostile presence in the Majestic. He constituted a kind of foreign body that the hotel's atmosphere could not assimilate. Not that he looked like a cartoon policeman. He didn't have a moustache and he didn't wear heavy boots. His clothes were well cut and made of fairly light worsted. He shaved every day and looked after his hands. But his frame was proletarian. He was a big, bony man.

You won't remember Mr. Heming. He was the estate agent who showed you around your comfortable home, suggested a financial package, negotiated a price with the owner, and called you with the good news. The less good news is that, all these years later, he still has the key. That's absurd, you laugh. Of all the many hundreds of houses he has sold, why would he still have the key to mine? The answer is; he has the keys to them all. William Heming's most at home in a stranger's private things.

Totally Loved This!
I really, really enjoyed this audio book. The narrators were great - the male narrated the "fictional" book, and the female narrated the "real" book.
Two excellent mysteries in one, really enjoyed the "fictional" sub-book. Loved the detective, Atticus Pundt!

beware
There is a review on here that contains a major spoiler in it's first sentence. Unfortunately, I read it before finished the book, so it was a bit annoying, even though one may have guessed it. I will never know.
Even still, I listened to this book while on a long driving trip, it was easy to follow (once I knew who the characters were) and I enjoyed the journey, both literally and literaturely!

Fabulous who dunnit!
Great narration, and intriguing story intertwining between “reality” and fiction. I had watched magpie murders on the bbc initially, which was very good, but the book is even better! Highly recommend for those who love a who dunnit !

Interesting idea well executed
As others have mentioned, this novel essentially contains two separate stories/mysteries.
Of the two stories, I think the modern day story was probably the weaker of the two, while the "story within a story" was really the star for me. I think this novel's greatest accomplishment comes from how the two stories are interwoven to become greater than the sum its parts.
Both mysteries were quite well plotted out and were intriguing but still easy to follow. It didn't make you feel like you needed a notebook to write down the 30+ irrelevant characters.
With all that said, I did find some parts of the novel surprisingly tropey, especially in the modern day story. The characters were okay, but I wasn't falling in love with any of them.
