It is one of the six non-detective novels that Agatha Christie wrote under her pen name, Mary Westmacott. Joan Scudamore, housewife and mother of three grown children, is happy, remarkably self-satisfied, and not-at-all introspective. Trapped alone in a foreign rest house she has nothing to do but reconsider her life. Self-analysis is at first unpleasant and then terrifying, as Joan probes deeper and deeper into her memories of interpersonal relationships. At last, mentally stripped to the core, she must reconstruct herself to face the future.
An unabridged Poirot mystery. taken from the collection Murder in the Mews 'Good night for a murder,' Inspector Japp remarked to Hercule Poirot as they walked home from a dinner on Guy Fawkes Night. 'Nobody would hear a shot, for instance, on a night like this.' And indeed the next morning the two men are called to 14 Bardsley Gardens Mews to investigate a mysterious case of murder disguised as suicide. Murder in the Mews is the title story of the volume by the same name. It is unabridged Agatha Christie at her best, and is superbly read by Nigel Hawthorne.
This is the final Tommy & Tuppence novel. Tommy and Tuppence Beresford have just become the proud owners of an old house in an English village. Along with the property, they have inherited some worthless bric-a-brac, including a collection of antique books. While rustling through a copy of "The Black Arrow", Tuppence comes upon a series of apparently random underlinings. However, when she writes down the letters, they spell out a very disturbing message: M a r y - J o r d a n - d i d - n o t - d i e - n a t u r a l l y!
Christie delivers a tale of deception and murder in an extended family of upper-caste Egyptians of 2000 BC. Rarely have the sniveling sounded so uxorious, the good so innocent, or the murderous so deceiving.
Some are born to sweet delight/Some are born to endless night' - William Blake. Agatha Christie wrote "Endless Night" in 1967, and it is one of her greatest - and most unusual - novels. Creepy, malevolent and claustrophobic, it is a story about choices, the nature of good and evil, and grim retribution. Mike Rogers had a childhood fantasy about what life would be like as an adult; he'd have a beautiful wife, they would live in a beautiful home, and this would be a peaceful and deserved reward for a turbulent early life
