Pretty good short explanation of every novel and story,2 plus lots of stories about life around London in the Victorian era.
An essential guide to all of Agatha's books. There are neat little anecdotes as well as information on the various movies made from her books. I love reading the corresponding essay to whichever book I’ve just finished. There are also crossword puzzles and word searches in it! A really fun book.
Puts out wonderful theories about each story and revels in Holmesian speculation.
A mishmash of items about Agatha Christie, but not any of her writings...small font makes it difficult to read at night, and heavy size makes it not for bathtubs. As an armchair companion maybe, but it's much more a reference, browser book than one to read it cover- to- cover.
