Why read: Received for review from publisher What impressed me: The highlight of the book for me was the plot ideas that Christie came up with, yet never used in her books. That's what made the book interesting and worth the read. What disappointed me: So very dry. And obviously full of spoilers for any Christie novel I haven't read yet. Lists upon lists upon lists of characters with little variation. Vaguely interesting, but the repetitive nature of the book gets old quickly. Recommended: Only for hardcore Agatha Christie fans.
Not for those who simply seek a good mystery, but recommended to avid Christie fans and researchers wanting deeper knowledge of her life and works. Not a book to read in one sitting, but one to love: a sumptuous buffet for fans who wish the Queen of Crime had lived forever. Est contenu dansPrix et récompenses

As with Agatha Christie’s Secret Notebooks, each chapter begins with a list of books that are discussed in detail. They Came to Baghdad and Endless Night come in for a large share of discussion, so it may be wise to read those Christies in particular before reading this book.
This book also includes an alternative version of a Miss Marple story; it is worth reading to compare with what was actually published.
Recommended for Christie fans. ( )
