Revered for classic mystery novels like "Murder on the Orient Express", "Death on the Nile" and "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd", Agatha Christie was also a master of the mystery short story, as this anthology brilliantly illustrates. The stories feature her favorite detective--Miss Jane Marple, Hercule Poirot, Parker Pyne and Harley quin--each of whom is introduced by Dame Agatha herself, who also lists her favorite tales. These 39 short stories are sparkling gems of detection and prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that big things do, indeed, come in small packages! This splendid collection is a must-have for all fans.
