A young man, broken down in the fog, witnesses a murder he is asked
to conceal... A full-length novel adapted by Charles Osborne from
Agatha Christie's acclaimed play. When a stranger runs his car into
a ditch in dense fog in South Wales and makes his way to an
isolated house, he discovers a woman standing over the dead body of
her wheelchair-bound husband, gun in her hand. She admits to
murder, and the unexpected guest offers to help her concoct a cover
story. But is it possible that Laura Warwick did not commit the
murder after all? If so, who is she shielding? The victim's young
half-brother or his dying matriarchal mother? Laura's lover?
Perhaps the father of the little boy killed in an accident for
which Warwick was responsible? The house seems full of possible
suspects... THE UNEXPECTED GUEST is considered to be one of the
finest of Christie's plays. Hailed as 'another Mousetrap' when it
opened on 12 August 1958 in the West End, it ran for 604
performances over the succeeding 18 months and has been staged many
times around the world over the last 40 years.
