CASE OF THE CHRISTIE CONSPIRACY

London 1926 and Agatha Christie is the darling of the literary circuit and the most desired guest in London's glittering social scene. She can often be found at meetings of the Detection Club, where mystery writers meet to share ideas, swap secrets and drink copiously. But then an author's initiation ceremony takes a gruesome turn, and one of the group ends up dead. Now Agatha, no longer just the author of great mystery plots, is suspected in one. When Agatha disappears the day after the murder, she's widely assumed to be guilty. Only Eliza Baker, assistant to the Club's enigmatic secretary Dorothy Sayers, is interested in investigating the case. But in a world where murder is the ultimate plot device, can Eliza piece together the evidence and find the killer before it's too late? A glorious new historical mystery, and if you thought the Golden Age of crime was dead, think again! 242 page paperback.
