If you're a detective/mystery buff, then you PROBABLY are familiar with the name of the magnificent Agatha Christie. She wrote sixty plus novels, all detective mysteries. Her most famous detective series would be Hercule Poirot...the Belgian with the gigantic moustaches who rants about 'the little gray cells' morning til night. Her other prominent character would be Miss Marple, a fragile old lady who just has a knack for knitting baby clothes and attracting mysteries...and, coincidentially, solving them. She had other series and investigators, including Tommy and Tuppence, and Detective Parker Pyne, and Harley Quinn, but none of these are quite so famous. She did write a few romance novels under a psuedonym, but she realized her true calling in life was to write detective novels. I'm glad she wasn't like Sir A.C. Doyle, who I should start another thread on...(he abandoned poor dear Sherlock in the prime of his existance!)
So...anyone ever read her stuff?
