This book is a must for all Agatha Christie aficionados. It starts off with her Torquay childhood and moves on to her time working as a volunteer nurse there in World War One, which is where her fascination with poisons came from. The book then traces Christie's life through the places she lived and where her stories were set.
Visit Devon, which is the setting for many of her stories. Have a sojourn on Burgh Island, the setting for Ten Little Niggers or stop off in Nether Wallop and Middle Wallop where the Miss Marple series was filmed.
It's not only a really beautiful, lavishlly illustrated volume, it is also an interesting approach to the biography of a much loved crime writer.
