Francis Durbridge reworked a couple of his dramas into novels in this way - in this instance, switching locations (from Egypt to Algeria) and changing the names of some of the characters.
It's clear from the blurbs that the stories are very similar - but the treatments, one a full-cast drama and the other a single-voice reading by Anthony Head are very different.
"East of Algiers" is the last Paul Temple recording currently available to BBC Audiobooks to offer consumers.There were only ever 8 novels, we have now recorded them all with Anthony Head.

I do believe that your copy is my own, stripped of tags and covers and the info package that I included in this recent upload.
Either way it is good to have some Paul Temple to listen to!

Thanks very much for sharing this, Lefevre. I often think when listening to these how confusing it would have been if I had married a woman with the same name as Mrs. Temple.
Best,
Steve
