Product Description

About the Author

Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Diehard Fans Can't Be Wrong!, 10 April 2007
By C. Knowles "Coljaz" (Sheffield, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
This review is from: Sad Cypress (Poirot) (Paperback)
This book is cited as a favourite perhaps more than any other by hardcore Christie fans, and with good reason. It's outstanding in the Christie catalogue. Beautifully written (for this type of book anyway!) and the most emotionally engaging and affecting of all her work, it's an absolute gem.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sad Cypress, 2 Dec 2000
By Jamie Black (Scotland) - See all my reviews
I am one of those people who has every tape and can say that this is probably the best. I would recommend it to any one who has the least interest in Crime/Thriller. John Moffat plays the part as Poirot brilliantly as usual.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cracking Read!, 22 July 2007
By N. Ingram "Ordinary Bloke" (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Sad Cypress (Poirot) (Paperback)
For me, this is one of Agatha Christie's most rounded novels. It may be fair to say that for the majority of her books she sacrificed depth of character for the sake of plot. However, this book has everything. Good characterisation, plenty of emotion and it goes without saying a rip-roaring plot.
