內容簡介
Agatha Christie is more than the most popular mystery writer of all time. In a career that spans over half a century, her name is synonymous with brilliant deception, ingenious puzzles, and the surprise denouement. By virtually inventing the modern mystery novel she has earned her title as the Queen of Crime. Curious? Then you're invited to read... DOUBLE SIN AND OTHER STORIES In one of London's most elegant shops, a decorative doll in green velvet adopts some rather human-and sinister-traits... A country gentleman is questioned about a murder that has yet to be committed... In summoning spirits, a medium is drawn closer to the world of the dead than she ever imagined possible... In a small country church, a dying man's final word, sanctuary, becomes both an elegy and a clue to a crime. Only the Queen of Crime could have conceived such delicious treats for mystery lovers. Only the inimitable Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, could solve them with such chilling perfection.
媒體評論
Two of Agatha Christie's most enduring--and endearing--sleuths star in this collection of mystery treats. Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple investigate cases of a country gentleman who is questioned about a murder not yet committed, a medium who is drawn closer to the world of the dead than she ever imagined, and a decorative doll in a London shop that adopts some rather human, and sinister, traits.

Her writing career spanned more than half a century, during which she wrote 80 novels and short story collections, as well as 14 plays, one of which, The Mousetrap, is the longest-running play in history. Two of the characters she created, the brilliant little Belgian Hercule Poirot and the irrepressible and relentless Miss Marple, went on to become world-famous detectives.
