In December 1926, Agatha Christie goes missing.
It was hard to read how much Agatha had sacrificed for him but happy she’ll eventually left him behind. It was good to see him get played and he had no way of breaking free from the game. What a selfish and just overall horrible guy. I said it in my review but Archie is the worst. I liked the cat-and-mouse aspect between Agatha and Archie. We know right off the bat that Agatha’s disappearance is planned but we don’t know how she did it or what was the end game. What is real, and what is mystery? What role did her unfaithful husband play, and what was he not telling investigators?Īgatha Christie novels have withstood the test of time, due in no small part to Christie's masterful storytelling and clever mind that may never be matched, but Agatha Christie's untold history offers perhaps her greatest mystery of all.įans of The Secrets We Kept, The Lions of Fifth Avenue, and The Alice Network will enjoy this riveting saga of literary history, suspense, and love gone wrong.I really enjoyed this one!
