The very end of this book is cut off This is the text of the missing ending. I borrowed the book from the library to find out the ending. This is what's missing: 'That area of England is purified- the wasps' nest cleared up. It's suitable for private living again. We've reason to believe they've shifted their operations to the neighbourhood of Bury St Edmunds. And we'll be keeping an eye on you so you needn't worry at all.' Tuppence gave a sigh of relief 'Thank you for telling me. You see, my daughter Deborah comes to stay from time to time and brings her three children-' 'You needn't worry,' said Mr Robinson. 'By the way, after the N and M business, didn't you adopt the child that figured in the case- the one that had the nursery rhyme books, Goosey Gander and all the rest of it?' 'Betty?' said Tuppence. 'Yes. She's done very well at university and she's gone off now to Africa to do research on how people live- that sort of thing. A lot of young people are very keen on that. She's a darling- and very happy.' Mr Robinson cleared his throat and rose to his feet. 'I want to propose a toast. To Mr and Mrs Thomas Beresford in acknowledgement of the service they have rendered to their country.' It was drunk enthusiastically. 'And if I may, I will propose a further toast,' said Mr Robinson. 'To Hannibal.' 'There Hannibal,' said Tuppence, stroking his head. 'You've had your health drunk. Almost as good as being knighted or having a medal. I was reading Stanley Weyman's Count Hannibal only the other day.' 'Read it as a boy, I remember,' said Mr Robinson. "Who touches my brothers touches Tavanne," if I've got it right. Pikeaway, don't you think? Hannibal, may I be permitted to tap you on the shoulder?' Hannibal took a step towards hin, received a tap on the shoulder and gently wagged his tail. 'I hereby create you a Count of this realm.' 'Count Hannibal. Isn't it lovely?' Said Tuppence. 'What a proud dog you ought to be!'
I think the Tommy and Tuppence stories are charming, and I love how T&T age in real time over the decades of the story. I'm the age now that T&T are in this book, so I especially enjoy Postern of Fate.
I LOVE this book;Tuppance and Tommy are wonderful, and this story of them in their latter-years is My absolute favourite of ACs stories - made especially delightful by the phenomenal reading of Hugh Fraser! Thank-You SO Much for uploading it!!!
@@maryholden3136 I did know that, Mary, who doesn’t. But I meant that I didn’t know the depth and sophistication for lack of a better word, that he so effortlessly display as a narrator. That had escaped me.
Lol, I love Tuppence; I think that (if she’d been a real person) she must have had ADHD - she has that inexhaustible curiosity, zest for adventure, imagination, and unlimited Creativity along with the type of Mind that recognizes patterns… even if unconsciously. …She reminds Me of Myself in those ways. 😉😄 I wish that AC had written more books about Tuppence and Tommy in Middle-Age, this one is such a jewel. (She would have also written fantastic Childrens Lit, as well!)
Big cheek not finishing this story. Thanks to the person that looked up the ending for us I’ll read all the comments next time before starting a great story.
Hugh Fraser is magnificent! Great prose of Agatha Chrisie read by him - nothing more comforting i've encountered... And yes, I would listen anything read by him.. If only he'd read less known Agatha Christie's works published under pseudonim of Mary Westmacott - that's my dear dream..

Sorry to hear the book cuts off--But I just had to stop it at 08:00! I'm having the exact same problem dear Tuppence is having--the Pink and Purple fairy tales I read to myself, and 10,000 books to go through many I never knew I owned like a signed first ed. of DUNE, and tragically, another first of a boxed Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass in perfect condition but was ruined during a flood--saw it for sale $15,000! And, I still have hundreds of boxes to go through--many donations from the estates of wealthy old money which I was allowed to take my pick of before they were thrashed--so I took them all! Oh, when one is young and the world unfolds before your eyes through the many glorious tales of adventure and history lost to the computer age!
Thank you for uploading! Hugh Fraser is simply wonderful. However, it seems that "she" is coming across as "he" nearly constantly during this narration and I wonder why that is.
I noticed that too at the start so it sounds if Tuppence is male not female ! With all the fuss about gender identity these days I don’t suppose it matters 😃
The ending is missing (suddenly cuts off). I pretty sure it happens in the last chapter (the Scooby-doo wrap up scene). 😭 Is that happening with abyone else?
@Audio Books Hub ... Ignore the ungrateful who believe they're doing your channel a favor by condescending to listen to the audio books you've uploaded. You don't need those types of subscribers! Some people age but never mature 😑
No ending again-- what is wrong with TH-cam? Either the ending of a British mystery audiobook is cut off early, or there is Asian/Arab music. 7-10 hours of listening and no ending. Who did this?
It was a garden structure that was advertised in the newspaper and ordered by sending a cheque or postal order so it could be delivered and assembled in situ
I must admit altho I could listen to Hugh Fraser forever..even reading the telephone directory This was one of the worst Agatha Christies I have ever heard Tommy and Tuppences exchanges were irritating ..often repeated and as if they were 'thick' and hadn't quite got the gist.Long boring bits about the books I wondered if Agatha didn't quite know how to write in more modern times....Quite pompous at times as well BUT OH BOY was she on the money if you relate her ideas to today..ie ' The charismatic leader with boyish charm who hides his real purpose could we be talking about NOT Dodo but BOJO
Enjoy most A.Christie books. Not sure what this ones about. Am an hour into it and still not sure what its about. Just alot of neighborhood gossip. A bit disappointed with this book.
DON'T LISTEN TO THIS ~ End is missing ~ The ultimate 'crime' ~ The last pages of a book torn out!! Should this remain listed?????? I'm very angry! Would like an answer from AUDIO BOOKS CLUB and TH-cam
Ironic how tuppence complains about classic books being altered by modern publishers, when Agatha Christie’s estate has allowed her books to become wokeified
There seems to be s problem with anything very long. They need to be divided up. Halves or thirds would make it easier. Also make it easier to keep your place as I have just finished listening to Agatha Christie's Midsummer Mysteries which was nearly 8 hours long. As most youtube channels allow you to come back where you left off, it wascreally annoying having to wade through it all. There wssn't even a text with the time frame. Very annoying!

Thanks so much for posting this! 😊
✨🌸✨🙏✨🌸✨
That was really thoughtful doing this. Thank you!
Thank you for the ending!🙏🏻
I love the relationship between Tommy and Tuppence and how Christie voices their dog Hannibal. And Hugh Fraser is perfection itself.
Hugh Fraser could read cereal boxes and I'd listen. He's perfect. Thanks Hugh. In case you ever read this - Thank You!
Indeed. I think the Tommy and Tuppence stories are disappointing drivel, compared to Christie's other stories. I'm only listening cos of Hugh Fraser.
My thoughts exactly
Thank you, most sincerely, Mr. Hugh Fraser!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I think the Tommy and Tuppence stories are charming, and I love how T&T age in real time over the decades of the story. I'm the age now that T&T are in this book, so I especially enjoy Postern of Fate.
He is, isn't he? Do you think we could all get together and adopt him? 😂
I always return to Agatha and Hugh the perfect combination
Thank you 🎉🎉❤
Hugh is simply the best; an effortless and beautiful audio talent . I never tire of listening..
My favorite Christie, and I have read then all.Such a cozy mystery!
Just love listening to Hugh Frazier. Great actor, gentleman and story teller.
I LOVE this book;Tuppance and Tommy are wonderful, and this story of them in their latter-years is My absolute favourite of ACs stories - made especially delightful by the phenomenal reading of Hugh Fraser!
Thank-You SO Much for uploading it!!!
This is my all time favorite AC. The dialogue between Tommy and Tuppence is so on point!
I enjoyed myself thoroughly. Especially the part with the old people. Thank you for your work!
I love Hugh’s rendition of ‘all the nice girls love a sailor’ what an actor!
And here l am again unable to resist the divine Hugh and his beautiful voice!
That was so wonderful of you to do. Thank you for that!
Hugh Fraser as a 90 year old singing “It’s a Long Way to Tipperary!” Heaven!!!
Just love you reading dear Hugh Fraser.
Performed by Hugh Fraser! His characterizations are great!
Hugh Fraser you are marvelous to listen to ❤
I didn’t really notice what a wonderful actor Hugh Frazer is, before now. First class.
He played Captain Hastings in Poirot for years in the TV series

still a favourite - thanks
But the ending is cut off.
Very annoying that after listening for over 7 hours that the end is cut off!
☹️
There are several versions on TH-cam--find another one and fast forward to the end to see if there's more.
What a real shame .... I love the summing up .... We shall never know if it's still going on ...🤔

Thank you

Noticed: he reads “he” instead of “ she” more than once😢. Enjoyable book👏
This is a bit of a rambling story It finishes abruptly with the end being cut off …….
Good writing! Envisualized are the BBC Tommy and Tuppence actors.
Is it just me that Hugh Fraser many at times refers to Tuppance as He?
15 minutes about books.... ugh it took a lot to stay with this story. Starts soooooo slow!
The whole book is slow. Listening to it makes me wonder whether AC was quite well at the time of writing
It was the first Agatha Christie I ever read and the opening dissertation about childrens books captivated me from the start... we're all different
Thank you for uploading! Hugh Fraser is simply wonderful. However, it seems that "she" is coming across as "he" nearly constantly during this narration and I wonder why that is.
You're right.
In fact, the spoken letter S is distorted throughout.
I noticed too.
It isn't how AC wrote it is it?
Thank god...I thought it was just me 😂
I noticed that too at the start so it sounds if Tuppence is male not female ! With all the fuss about gender identity these days I don’t suppose it matters 😃
Hugh Fraser!!!!
The ending is missing (suddenly cuts off). I pretty sure it happens in the last chapter (the Scooby-doo wrap up scene). 😭
Is that happening with abyone else?
As long as it’s read by Hugh Fraser……
It cuts off just before the end! 😢
Hugh Fraser is as important to Agatha Christie Books as Perot they are two great men.
Do you mean David Suchet who played Poirot to Hugh Fraser’s Captain Hastings ? If so I would agree. Hugh Fraser’s audio books are amazing.
Why oh why.cut off the ends 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
So disappointed that you he ending has been cut out!
The ending is cut off. I’m destroyed! BOOOOOO.!
Long live the Mary Jordan’s & Alexander Parkinson’s . Beware, history repeats itself.
There must be some technical issues I will try to fix it
Yes I am annoyed too, at not getting the end, because an abrupt cut off, spoilt hour's of enjoyable listening, not to reach the climax of the story.
Ending still cut off.
Channel has been told and hasn't fixed.
Lost me as listener, let alone subscriber.
@@georgielancaster1356 well I am unable to fix it I am sure you can still find it on the internet

Is the end still cut off or was that fixed? ... Maybe a part 2 coming?
i might re release it with the ending if i can
@@audiobookshub6195 I unsubscribed. It's irresponsible to post something that's incomplete.
Yes

Where's the end of the story?
No ending again-- what is wrong with TH-cam? Either the ending of a British mystery audiobook is cut off early, or there is Asian/Arab music. 7-10 hours of listening and no ending. Who did this?
Look through the comments, someone has posted the ending.
I completely agree.
Ahhhhh end cuts off!!??

Last few lines not recorded.
Cuts off before end 😢
The last 5-10 minutes is missing - is this a bootleg copy? Very frustrating and disappointing

What is K.K?
It was a garden structure that was advertised in the newspaper and ordered by sending a cheque or postal order so it could be delivered and assembled in situ

This is not Hugh Fraser 😢shame...but still enjoy the story...😊
What makes you think it's not Hugh Fraser? Because it definitely is.

Two people have kindly posted the ending in the comments.
Ironic how tuppence complains about classic books being altered by modern publishers, when Agatha Christie’s estate has allowed her books to become wokeified
How? I hadn't noticed.
@ try reading the original ‘elephants can remember’ and the new version you probably won’t get past the first ten pages
Really? I must look into that. I've only heard the audiobook, and I've no idea which edition that was. k@@djlewis5149
