Post-poned: Penn's Village Reads: The Witness for the Prosecution by Agatha Christie

Witness Cover



Penn’s Village volunteer Brian Wengenroth will read this short story. A murder trial takes a diabolical turn when the wife of the accused takes the stand. A woman's sixth sense—and a loaded revolver—signal premonitions of doom. A stranded motorist seeks refuge in a remote mansion and is greeted with a dire warning. Detective Hercule Poirot faces his greatest challenge when his services are enlisted—by the victim—in a bizarre locked-room murder.

If there is time remaining, Brian will read The Mystery of the Blue Jar by Agatha Christie.

Blue Jar Cover


Every morning at the same hour on the golf course, Jack Hartington hears mysterious cries for help coming from a cottage. He speaks to the resident and learns that she has unsettling dreams of a woman with a blue Chinese vase. Believing that the cries for help are from the late Mrs. Turner, the former resident of the cottage, Jack hires a psychic investigator to spend a night in the house, a night which proves to have startling results.
