"Amply display the author’s storytelling gifts. . . . Both fans and newcomers looking for suspenseful escapism will be pleasantly diverted." — Publishers Weekly
“Agatha Christie’s books are both wonderful crime novels and studies in contrast and duality, and I adore them still. Underestimate them at your peril.”
— Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Inspector Gamache novels
“Agatha Christie taught me many important lessons about the inner workings of the mystery novel before it ever occurred to me that I might one day be writing mysteries myself.”
— Sue Grafton, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Kinsey Millhone novels
