Thanks for posting this — even if the notebooks are *no secret*, my mom, a huge Agatha Christie fan, has never mentioned this, I don’t think she knows about them. I would love to send her a copy of the hardcover for a present when it is released. great heads up for me, appreciate it.

I hope I can keep this a secret from my wife, so I can get it for her as a gift before she gets it for herself.

Nice find-—thanks.

Just as delightful as the books, is Margaret Rutherford playing Agatha’s amateur sleuth, Miss Marple, in about four movies.

Rutherford often co-starred with her husband, Stringer Davis.

AC wrote a wonderful book, “Come, Tell Me How You Live”, about helping her husband, Max Mallowan, on his archeological expeditions in the Middle East.

For five years Agnes and Max spend the winter months exploring in northern Syria looking for Hittite ruins from around 4,000 BC.

It’s a interesting book and a great introduction to archeology.

Christie wrote more than 90 books, which have sold an estimated four billion copies: more, as the familiar phrase has it, than everything except Shakespeare and the Bible.
Thanks BGHater.
