New Mysteries from the Queen of Crime
In 2004, a remarkable discovery was made at Greenway House – Agatha Christie’s holiday home. 73 notebooks, containing secrets behind her most famous novels came to light. The most exciting discovery within them – two unpublished Poirot stories!
Now, for the first time, these two stories will be published alongside a fascinating exploration of the contents of the notebooks. What is the ‘deleted scene’ in The Mysterious Affair at Styles? How did the infamous twist in The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, really come about? Which famous Poirot novel started life as an adventure for Miss Marple? Which books were designed to have completely different endings, and what were they?
John Curran, Christie expert and friend to the estate, answers all of these questions in Agatha Christie’s Secret Notebooks – now on sale in the UK. To ask John questions on his new book, and to learn more about the notebooks, visit the blog.
You can view John talking about his discovery here.
One of the two unpublished stories, The Capture of Cerberus, will be serialised in The Daily Mail - be sure to pick up a copy this Saturday and discuss it with other fans in the forum.
Copies of the book can be pre-ordered here.
