Agatha Christie Radio Drama | The Unexpected Guest
A foggy night ... a lonely country house ... and a woman with a gun in her hand quietly surveying the dead body of her husband. It looked like a straighforward case of murder. Or was it? As the ghosts of an old wrong begin to emerge from the past, the case begins to look anything but straightforward...

    I loved this story, but it ended a bit silly. Suddenly a 17 yr old girl, with zero life experience, is the wise guru to her whole family, all much older than her. The muuuch older man, John, obeys her "wisdoms" meekly and does as he's told. Nel to the rescue! The 17 yr old child fixed everyone's balls-ups like a seasoned pro. Was a bit unrealistic and silly, Agatha

    Old John, a paedo masquerading as a fine upstanding husband and gentleman. He tells the young man who wants to marry 17 yr old Nell, that she's too young, a mere child, yet he married her sister when she was 17........ Then he quickly loses interest in his wife when she grows out of her teens and starts spending all his time and energy on her teenaged sister. Nowadays we call it grooming. It worked. At 17 she then fell into his arms. Go figure
