Agatha Christie remains, all these years later, the unchallenged queen of the murder-mystery genre. In fact, she reached such heights of fame and notoriety in her life that whenever she wanted to write in a different genre, she was forced to use a nome de plume. What life could produce the woman who seems to be the clear inspiration for J.B. Fletcher in Murder, She Wrote? Follow Christie from England to Egypt and back again, join her on archaeological digs with her husband, and dive into strange facts that led to her to write fewer books as she aged.

Interesting woman

This is the twelfth book I’ve read/listened to by in60Learning and I would happily listen to another.
I’ve enjoyed each book from them, and learned a lot. I’m looking forward to learning more!
Since this book is about a person who was not involved in any major events or altercations/wars, we get to learn a bit more about her as a person.

This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Tony Honickberg ). There is something about his pace that makes his narration seem a bit dry. Maybe it’s the sentences that run together. Despite this I’d still say he did pretty good reading this content.

There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing.
