![]() ![]() Fearing not only for her life, but also for the lives of the people she loves, Agatha Christie has no choice but to disappears for ten days and do everything that this man asks her. She is first attacked, then saved, and then blackmailed by the same man, a Dr Kurs who wants her to commit the perfect murder. The novel starts with Agatha Christie at a train station in London. ![]() She doesn’t remember what happened and the mystery was never solved, but Andrew Wilson creates a fantastic fictional story of what happened during these ten days in A TALENT FOR MURDER. She suddenly disappears and, even though the entire country is looking for her, she turns up in a hotel only ten days later. On the professional side, the success of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd has created expectations from her readers and she is struggling to finish her new novel, The Mystery of the Blue Train. On the personal side, she misses her mother who died two years earlier and she doesn’t accept that her husband is leaving her for another woman. In December 1926, the Queen of Crime Agatha Christie was going through a lot both personally and professionally. Although I am a big fan of Agatha Christie and her novels, I don’t know much about her personal life and this novel gave me the chance to find out more about her so I’d like to thank Jess Barratt and Simon & Schuster for providing me with a copy of the book. ![]()
