The full list of books is available at www.worldsfavouritechristie.com where you can vote for your favourite.

Mathew Prichard, Chairman of Agatha Christie Limited and grandson of Agatha Christie said: "It's exciting to see, almost 40 years after her death, that my grandmother's books are still so popular. Her fans come from around the world, and from diverse walks of life, and we're looking forward to hearing from them wherever they are. I'm intrigued to see which book unites them as their favourite."

Fans are encouraged to submit their own videos championing their personal favourites. To vote, and to see what celebrity fans have to say, visit www.worldsfavouritechristie.com until 31st May 2015.
