| A “distinctly worthwhile” book from the Queen of Crime has newlyweds Tommy and Tuppence sleuthing crimes in “the merriest collection of detective stories” (The New York Times). A young couple eager for adventure, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford jump at the offer to take over the International Detective Agency. Big fans of mysteries, they rely on the techniques from the best of their favorite fictional sleuths, like Sherlock Holmes, Father Brown, Inspector French, and Hercule Poirot—coupled, of course, with their own cleverness. Soon they find themselves sussing out spies for the government, searching for thieves in country homes, and hunting a murderer at a costume ball. It seems there is no end to the trouble that follows them in this smart, humorous collection from the Queen of Crime. “Agatha Christie taught me two things: that plotting mysteries was an art, and that a woman detective could be as strong a character as a male detective. A woman detective didn’t need to be a housewife sleuthing in her spare time, she could be an equal in the game.” —Charles Todd, New York Times–bestselling author of the Ian Rutledge Mysteries and Bess Crawford Mysteries |
