Instant New York Times and USA Today bestseller!
“A stunning story…with a clever ending, and Benedict providing perhaps the most reasonable explanation for why Christie disappeared for 11 days in 1926.” – The Washington Post
The New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of “The Only Woman in the Room” returns with a thrilling retelling of one of the most infamous events in literary history: Agatha Christie’s mysterious 11-day disappearance in 1926.
In December 1926, Agatha Christie disappeared. Investigators found her empty car beside a deep, dark pond, and the only clues were some tire tracks nearby and a fur coat left in the car – odd for a cold night. Neither her First World War veteran husband nor her daughter know her whereabouts, and Britain launches an unprecedented manhunt to find the budding mystery writer. Eleven days later, she reappeared as mysteriously as she had disappeared, claiming to be suffering from amnesia and offering no explanation for her absence.
The mystery of eleven days of missing remains. Acclaimed author Mary Benedict explores the shadows of the past with her iconic historical novels, drawing us into the world of Agatha Christie to imagine why such a brilliant woman would find herself at the center of such a dark historical mystery.
What is reality and what is mystery? What role did her unfaithful husband play, and what did he fail to tell investigators?
Agatha Christie’s novels have stood the test of time, thanks in large part to Christie’s masterful storytelling and a brilliant mind that may never be matched, but Agatha Christie’s untold history may provide She offers the most mysterious places.
Fans of Secrets We Keep, The Lion of Fifth Avenue, and Alice in Chains will enjoy this riveting saga of literary history, suspense, and love gone wrong.
