A Caribbean Mystery by Agatha Christie

A Caribbean Mystery by Agatha Christie

A Caribbean resort Strangers thrown together Is there evil in paradise? Major Palgrave enjoys an audience, and, in Miss Marple, he discovers a captive audience too polite to walk away. But midway through recounting the tale of a multiple murder, he stops suddenly when something, or someone, catches his eye. Then, when he’s found dead the following day, Miss Marple suspects that someone wanted to silence the talkative major. Permanently. Never underestimate Miss Marple ‘There’s no such thing as a disappointing Agatha Christie: there are only good ones and better ones.’ Naomi Alderman ‘Livelieness . . . infectious zest . . . as good as anything Miss Christie has done.’ Observer

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.
