HARPER/COLLINS

Four Miss Marple short stories taken from The Thirteen Problems. Sir Henry Clithering, ex-commissioner of Scotland Yard, is staying with his old friend Colonel and Mrs Bantry, who live near St Mary Mead. "When I was down here last year we got into the habit of discussing unsolved mysteries...We each supplied a story to which we knew the answer, but nobody else did. It was supposed to be an exercise in deductive faculties -- to see who could get nearest to the truth. We hardly realised that Miss Marple was playing; but we were very polite about it -- didn't want to hurt the old dear's feelings. And now comes the cream of the jest. The old lady outdid us everytime!" The Blue Geranium The Four Suspects The Companion A Christmas Tragedy And so it is decided to ask Miss Marple to dinner, and once again she proves that simply by observing human nature in the sleepy village of St Mary Mead, she is easily able to unravel the mysteries put forward by the other diners.

Set in 1350 BC, the legend of Akhnaton tells of the Pharoah's attempt to convince his nation to abandon their old 'pagan' god Amon and to turn to the worship of a new deity, the monotheistic sun god, Aton.
Introduced to the legend by Howard Carter, discoverer of Tutankhamun's tomb, when she met him in Luxor in 1931, Agatha Christie became fascinated by both the story and the society in which it took place. Her painstaking researches led to this retelling of the story in the form of a highly readable and dramatic two-hour play.
Akhnaton was written by Agatha Christie in 1937, when her interest in Egyptology from her travels with her archaeologist husband was at its height. Probably her most serious play, it was deemed too ambitious to be performed, and it went unknown and unpublished until Collins released a hardback edition in 1973. Never paperbacked or published subsequently, this rare edition has become the Holy Grail for Agatha Christie collectors, keen to learn more about this unique drama and to discover its relevance alongside her other Egyptian books such as Death Comes As the End, Death on the Nile, Appointment With Death and Come, Tell Me How You Live. Now this facsimile edition of the original hardback at last gives Christie fans the chance to discover for themselves one of Agatha Christie's most highly sought after and exotic creations.

Akhnaton: a play in three acts

A superb novel of possessive love. Laura Franklin bitterly resented the arrival of her younger sister Shirley, an enchanting baby loved by all the family. But Laura's emotions towards her sister changed dramatically one night, when she vowed to protect her with all her strength and love. While Shirley longs for freedom and romance, Laura has to learn that loving can never be a one-sided affair, and the burden of her love for her sister has a dramatic effect on both their lives. A story of consequences when love turns to obsession... Famous for her ingenious crime books and plays, Agatha Christie also wrote about crimes of the heart, six bittersweet and very personal novels, as compelling and memorable as the best of her work.
