内容简介 在线阅读本书

Agatha Christie is the world's most popular fiction writer; her works have been outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare. Best remembered for her classic crime novels such as Murder on the Orient Express and And Then There Were None, her works have been cherished by generations of readers. Christie, however, was also a master of the short story and this volume collects some of her finest short pieces. With such masterpieces as 'Witness for the Prosecution' (the basis for the classic film) and 'Three Blind Mice' (the basis for her Mousetrap, the longest-running play in history), as well as some of her lesser known works, including all of her supernatural suspense tales, this collection of twenty-eight ingenious tales displays Agatha Christie's full range as an author.
作者简介 Agatha Christie's career spanned more than fifty years and included eighty books as well as fourteen plays. Declared the "champion deceiver of our time" (New York Times), she is best known in the U.S. for her classic novel And Then There Were None, as well as her novels featuring Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. Her work has been the subject of numerous films and TV dramas over the past seventy-five years. She died in 1976.
