Summary:  "In an all-new edition, an engaging and illuminating chronicle of the life of the 'Queen of Mystery,' complete with a bonus CD featuring the voice of the grande dame herself. Agatha Christie was a woman of mystery, in every sense of the word. Her novels made her the world's best-selling author, but her private life was hidden from view. For many years she dodged reporters and gave no interviews, and for a brief time she famously disappeared. She started writing her autobiography in April 1950 and finished it fifteen years later, when she was seventy-five years old and decided 'it seems the right moment to stop.' In this book, which was originally published in 1977 in the United States by Dodd, Mead & Company, Agatha Christie sheds light on her past. She tells of her childhood in Victorian England, her volunteer work during World War II, her rise to success, her working habits, the inspiration for her most famous characters--Hercule Poirot and Jane Marple--and the places and people that influenced her. After being out of print for several years, this book is being brought back in a new hardcover edition with a CD featuring excerpts dictated by Agatha Christie herself."--From publisher.
