Countryside Cases

Murder and mystery lurk even in the peaceful English countryside and on its beaches, as this collection of detective stories by Agatha Christie proves. The author grew up in the seaside town of Torquay, so she knew similar settings – including all their criminal pitfalls – perfectly. Go there with the famous investigators – Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple or Tommy and Tuppence – and get drawn into their adventurous and often dangerous expeditions full of suspense, sophisticated plots, and surprising endings.
