Agatha Christie: Two Novels

iOS iPhone

This eBook contains two detective novels by master mystery writer Agatha Christie. The first novel included is “The Mysterious Affair at Styles,” the first book in which Christie's brilliant creation Hercule Poirot appeared. The second novel is “The Secret Adversary”; this work features the slightly less well-known detective pair Tommy and Tuppence.

Christie – the 'Queen of Crime' – is one of the world's best-selling authors. Having sold roughly 4 billion books, her collected work follows only the Bible in popularity. She created several well-known characters most notably Poirot and Miss Jane Marple.
