Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

On a cold December night in 1926, one of England's most celebrated novelists vanished into a story she never wrote.

Agatha Christie's car was found abandoned at Newlands Corner in Surrey, headlights still burning, with personal belongings left behind. For eleven days, more than a thousand police officers and thousands of volunteers searched the English countryside for a woman who had, by every visible sign, disappeared without a trace. Her husband, caught in a crumbling marriage and an affair, became the focus of intense suspicion. Newspapers on both sides of the Atlantic ran her photograph daily. Even Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was drawn into the search, consulting a spirit medium in an unusual attempt to help find her.

Then, eleven days later, she turned up alive at a fashionable Yorkshire hotel, registered under a stranger's name, dancing, shopping, and reading newspaper coverage of her own disappearance.

She would never fully explain what happened.This true crime account reconstructs Christie's eleven missing days from surviving police records, contemporary newspaper archives, and a century of conflicting biographies, separating documented fact from the theories, rumors, and fictionalized accounts that have surrounded the case since 1926.>Read the case as the evidence reveals it: contradictions, gaps, unanswered questions, and all.

Step into one of the twentieth century's most enduring real-life mysteries and decide for yourself what the evidence suggests.
