Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.

評分我手頭上的馬普爾小姐係列不多瞭,所以每本都不捨得立刻打開看。但像久未謀麵的老朋友般,總是會想念的。可是想念地久瞭,隻好打開一本,問一句:你好啊,我的馬普爾小姐。 書的一開始我就很喜歡,老去的少校絮絮叨叨又大聲誇張的講著他那些老掉牙的故事,他那些彆人都聽瞭無...
評分大學裏讀的很多,但都是波洛的探案集,這本是頭一迴讀馬普爾小姐的作品,但情節一如既往的緊湊,扣人心弦,最後凶手倒是齣人意料,(當然這個是阿加莎的殺手鐧瞭),現在很多作品都是靠對話推動情節,略顯無趣,但是阿婆的作品雖然也是對話,但寫的就能讓人欲罷不能的讀下去,...
