Janet Morgan s definitive and authorised biography of Agatha Christie, with a new retrospective foreword by the author.


Agatha Christie (1890-1976), the world s bestselling author, is a public institution. Her creations, Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, have become fiction s most legendary sleuths and her ingenuity has captured the imagination of generations of readers. But although she lived to a great age and was prolific, she remained elusively shy and determinedly private.


Given sole access to family papers and other protected material, Janet Morgan s definitive biography unravels Agatha Christie s life, work and relationships, creating a revealing and faithfully honest portrait. The book has delighted readers of Christie s detective stories for more than 30 years with its clear view of her career and personality, and this edition includes a new foreword by the author reflecting on the longevity of Agatha Christie s extraordinary success and popularity.

Janet Morgan is a writer and consultant who worked in the government s Think Tank from 1978 to 1981 and now advises governments, companies and other organizations on long-range planning, new technology and different strategies. Her books include The House of Lords and the Labour Government 1964-70 and the acclaimed biography of Edwina Mountbatten. She was the editor of the three-volume edition of The Diaries of a Cabinet Minister and of Backbench Diaries 1951-63 by Richard Crossman and was the co-editor, with Richard Hoggart, of The Future of Broadcasting. Agatha Christie was her first biography.
