The Mystery of Mrs. Christie

The Mystery of Mrs. Christie by Marie Benedict, 272 pages

In December of 1926, in an event that could have been torn from one of her own books, Agatha Christie vanished, leaving behind only her abandoned car. Eleven days later, she mysteriously turned up, safe and sound, with no memory of the preceding week and a half. No further explanation has ever arisen. This is all true. 

In The Mystery of Mrs. Christie, Benedict presents her theory for those mysterious days, creating a captivating tale of love gone sour and a woman desperate to live on her own terms. Through chapters that bounce back and forth between 1926 and the early days of the author's marriage to Mr. Christie, readers are treated to a twisty potential answer that makes us question everything. An excellent story, and sure to please Christie's fans.
