Three Blind Mice

by Agatha Christie

Mice

A snowstorm and a psychotic killer have a cast of characters locked in a guest house full of accusations and anxiety. The catchy childhood rhyme Three Blind Mice plays a murderous tune
in this thriller.

Three Blind Mice” was part of a May 30, 1947 evening of program in honor of the eightieth birthday
of Queen Mary. The BBC approached the Queen some months prior and asked for her special favorites. Amongst a selection of music and variety, she requested a new mystery by
Agatha Christie, a writer the Queen deeply admired. The world’s longest running play “The Mousetrap” was inspired by “Three Blind Mice”.
