Description
Half a century after her death, Agatha Christie remains the undisputed Queen of Crime. Her plots uncracked, her characters unforgotten, her influence undiminished.
To mark the 50th anniversary, Janice Hallett, Tom Hindle and Hazell Ward, three of today’s finest crime writers, come together to celebrate the woman who made the whodunnit an art form. All three have been shaped by Christie’s genius: her locked rooms, her unreliable narrators, her uncanny understanding of what makes us suspect our neighbours.
Expect affectionate tribute, sharp literary debate and one urgent question: 50 years on, why can’t we resist a good whodunnit?
