Agatha Christie is the most widely published author of all time, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. Her books have sold more than a billion copies in English and another billion in a hundred foreign languages. She died in 1976, after a prolific career spanning six decades.
"What Agatha Christie taught me was all about the delicate
placement of the red herring. She was the ultimate genius behind
'by indirections shall we find directions out.' "--Elizabeth
George, New York Times bestselling author of the Inspector Lynley
novels
"The whole thing is utterly impossible and utterly fascinating. It
is the most baffling mystery Agatha Christie has ever
written."--New York Times
"The most astonishingly impudent, ingenious and altogether
successful mystery story since The Murder of Roger Ackroyd."--Daily
Herald (UK)
"There is no cheating; the reader is just bamboozled in a
straightforward way from first to last....The most colossal
achievement of a colossal career. The book must rank with Mrs.
Christie's previous best--on the top notch of detection."--New
Statesman (UK)
"One of the most ingenious thrillers in many a day."--Time
magazine
"One of the very best, most genuinely bewildering Christies."--The
Observer (UK)
