Agatha Christie The ABC Murders aprašymas

Torquay, Devon, England. She was a British crime writer of novels, short stories, and plays. She is best remembered for her 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections (especially those featuring Hercule Poirot or Miss Jane Marple), and her successful West End plays.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Christie is the best-selling novelist of all time. Her novels have sold roughly four billion copies, and her estate claims that her works rank third, after those of William Shakespeare and the Bible, as the most widely published books.
Her books have been translated into at least 103 languages.
