Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in English with another billion in 100 foreign languages. She is the most widely published author of all time and in any language, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels written under the name of Mary Westmacott.

Agatha Christie's first novel, The Mystery Affair of Styles, was written towards the end of the First World War, in which she served as a VAD. In it she created Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian detective who was destined to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. It was eventually published by The Bodley Head in 1920.

In 1926, after averaging a book a year, Agatha Christie wrote her masterpiece. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was the first of her books to be published by Collins and marked the beginning of an author-publisher relationship which lasted for 50 years and well over 70 books. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was also the first of Agatha Christie's books to be dramatised - under the name Alibi - and to have a successful run in London's West End. The Mousetrap, her most famous play of all, opened in 1952 and is the longest-running play in history.

Agatha Christie was made a Dame in 1971. She died in 1976, since when a number of books have been published posthumously: the bestselling novel Sleeping Murder appeared later that year, followed by her autobiography and the short story collection Miss Marple's Final Cases, Problem at Pollensa Bay and While the Light Lasts. In 1998 Black Coffee was the first of her plays to be novelised by another author, Charles Osborne.

'By the pricking of my thumbs

Something wicked this way comes.'

MACBETH

When Tommy and Tuppence visit an elderly aunt in her gothic nursing home, they think nothing of her mistrust of the doctors; after all Ada is a very difficult old lady.

But when Mrs Lockett mentions a poisoned mushroom stew and Mrs Lancaster talks about 'something behind the fireplace', Tommy and Tuppence find themselves caught up in an unexpected adventure involving a strange inheritance, a mysterious house, black magic, a missing tombstone - and almost death for the redoutable Tuppence...

比较喜欢的一本书,虽然书封如此阴森,其中确不乏温情。 自己也时常有女主那处寻微探幽的念头,也对曾经的某处空间留有一生无法释怀的某种情结。 夫妇间平实真切的关心和温情,烤鸡的小伙子可笑的智慧,最终的真相残忍也令人动容。 算是一本好书。  

評分

年少时候读古龙与金庸,基本都过了一遍。至今仍念念不忘《绝代双娇》的首段,而《楚留香》里关于白玉美人的一段描写现在也能顺口而出。但是想来古龙作品中我能记住的,除了这两段也基本上只剩几个人名了。倒是金庸七上八下的15部作品,而今大都情节清楚,结局明白。 眼前阿婆...

讀前麵覺得Tommy和Tuppence這對夫婦有點絮叨,結尾大逆轉,並且小驚悚,完全沒猜到。阿婆的語言雖然簡潔明快,但有很多典型英式的智慧又有寓意的吐槽還是很值得玩味的。#路人轉粉
