Title: Very good audio book - The Clocks (Hercule Poirot) by Agatha Christie

A very good 7 hour audio book featuring the fictional retired detective, Hercule Poirot.

A secretary for hire is given a job to go to a blind woman's house for some typing work. She enters the house and finds a man dead, with 4 clocks on a table, all stopped at 4:15.

Sounds good, Bill. :D See what I did there? I find it hard to listen to audiobooks. Ironically, I suppose, I lose focus. The same happens with reading, but it requires less energy to concentrate than audiobooks.

I think it's related to ADHD. The focus issue overall certainly is, but I'm not sure if it's easier to read than listen to audio for most people with ADHD.

Nora's been listening to old mysteries on CBC from YouTube. And I do like podcasts occasionally; they're usually related to science.
