From the Queen of Mysteryβthis all-new collection of stories about love gone horribly wrong will get your heart racing.
Love can propel us to our greatest heights . . . and darkest depths. In this new collection of Agatha Christie short stories, witness the dark side of loveβcrimes of passion, games of the heart, and deadly affairs. This pulse-pounding compendium features beloved detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, master of charades Parker Pyne, the enigmatic Harley Quin, and the adventurous Tommy and Tuppence, all on the ready to solve a tantalizing mystery.
In βThe Face of Helen,β a night at the Royal Opera could reach a deadly crescendo for a woman caught in a dicey love triangle; βFinessing the Kingβ delivers a curious ad in the personals that could mask sinister intentions; whoβs in danger of getting stung in βWaspβs Nestβ depends on rounding up suspects and solving a murderβbefore it even happens; and more tales that make for essential reading that Christie fans old and new will simply love to death.
