The Secret Adversary

The Secret Adversary was the second novel Agatha Christie ever wrote.  It introduced the characters of Tommy and Tuppence and was inspired by a conversation Christie overheard in an ABC cafe.  Two women were discussing someone called Jane Fish.  Christie rather liked the name.  She changed it to Jane Finn and began to write a novel called The Joyful Venture.  The title eventually changed to The Secret Adversary and became the first Christie book to be made into a film.
