Agatha Christie's London

A Historical Guide to the Queen of Crime's Capital

About this book

'A fresh look at the author's enduring grip on our imagination.' – SUNDAY MIRROR

London had a special place in Agatha Christie's heart. In her childhood, she would visit the capital to stay with her Auntie Grannie; as an adult, she owned several homes in the city. A reoccurring location in her stories, London is where Poirot and Hastings, and Tommy and Tuppence reside, and even Miss Marple cannot resist a trip up to town to shop in its department stores.

Avoid red herrings, examine the clues to discover several of her former homes, use your little grey cells to detect where she worked during the Second World War, and probe where the former 'Detection Club' met. Gather the evidence to reveal the fashionable restaurants, luxury hotels and other locations that she and her characters frequented.

On completion of your investigation, your denouement will reveal the final twist: just how important London was to Agatha and her stories.
