Lucy explores Agatha Christie's early life and the origins of her talent for murder mysteries, unearthing the inspiration for some of her greatest characters and the secrets that the enigmatic Christie kept carefully hidden from public view.
Lucy's investigation follows the trail of pivotal moments in Christie's life and the nation's experience to weave a picture of a woman who was both of her time, and thoroughly ahead of it. She explores how, far from being cosy whodunnits, Christie's early books tap into and capture the social upheavals of one of the most tumultuous periods of the 20th century.
