Murder in Mesopotamia
Fifteen years ago, during the Great War, Louise Leidner’s first husband was tried as a spy, sentenced to death, and then escaped, only to die in a train crash.
So how is he sending her death threats from beyond the grave? Death threats upon which someone has followed through.
Only the world’s greatest detective can uncover the truth.
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 100 foreign countries. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.
