Black Coffee by Agatha Christie

Black Coffee by Agatha Christie

This little known mystery will surprise and delight Christie fans. Written in 1934 the story concerns a physicist named Sir Claude Amory who has come up with a formula for an atom bomb. In the first act Sir Claude is poisoned (in his coffee naturally) and Hercule Poirot is called in to solve the case. He does so after many wonderful twists and turns in true Christie fashion.

‘A lively and light-hearted read which will give pleasure to all those who have long wished that there was just one more Christie to devour’
Antonia Fraser, Sunday Telegraph

‘Reads like authentic, vintage ChristieI feel sure Agatha would be proud to have written it’
Mathew Prichard, Agatha Christie’s grandson
