Why do Agatha Christie’s novels continue to inspire each
generation? The answer is the quality and range of her puzzles: her
rich and varied structures of deception. Christie broke the mould
of detective fiction and rewrote the implicit rules of the
whodunnit. Agatha Christie: Plots, Clues and Misdirections examines
Christie’s skills as a whodunnit writer. It analyses her methods
in setting her puzzles. It shows how she uses a combination of
diverse plots, cunning clues and subtle misdirections. In the sheer
variety and profusion of each of these elements Christie is without
peer, and her combining genuine puzzles with entertaining
narratives has never been surpassed. In this unique analysis of how
Christie sets her puzzles, two medical professionals and
enthusiastic Christie fans explore the greatest of Christie’s
deceptions – the impression that her writing is simple.
