'Mrs McGinty's dead!'
'How did she die?'
'Down on one knee, just like I!'
So goes the old children's game - sadly, things didn't end so happily for the real Mrs McGinty. She was killed by a crushing blow to the back of the head. Then the killer tore up the floorboards in search of ... what?
Could the answer lie in an article the deceased clipped from a newspaper two days before her death? With a desperate killer still free, Hercule Poirot will have to stay alive long enough to find out...
'So simple, so economical, so completely baffling. Each clue scrupulously given with superb sleight of hand!'
--Sunday Times
Agatha Christie is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in English with another billion in 100 foreign languages. She is the most widely published author of all time and in any language, outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels written under the name of Mary Westmacott.
Agatha Christie's first novel, The Mystery Affair of Styles, was written towards the end of the First World War, in which she served as a VAD. In it she created Hercule Poirot, the little Belgian detective who was destined to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. It was eventually published by The Bodley Head in 1920.
In 1926, after averaging a book a year, Agatha Christie wrote her masterpiece. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was the first of her books to be published by Collins and marked the beginning of an author-publisher relationship which lasted for 50 years and well over 70 books. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was also the first of Agatha Christie's books to be dramatised - under the name Alibi - and to have a successful run in London's West End. The Mousetrap, her most famous play of all, opened in 1952 and is the longest-running play in history.
Agatha Christie was made a Dame in 1971. She died in 1976, since when a number of books have been published posthumously: the bestselling novel Sleeping Murder appeared later that year, followed by her autobiography and the short story collection Miss Marple's Final Cases, Problem at Pollensa Bay and While the Light Lasts. In 1998 Black Coffee was the first of her plays to be novelised by another author, Charles Osborne.

评分一点好奇心,一点突发暴涨的欲望,造成了一个老妇的死亡。贪婪的本性只是因低贱的生活暂时压抑,一旦有了滋生的营养,它会不顾一切疯长。 胆小懦弱的人是不具备谋杀的潜质的。阿婆坚信,过分自信是杀人犯的一个性格特征。 那么,谁是自大狂妄的人呢? 三十年前的四起谋杀案,好...
