Publisher Description

"The Mysterious Mr. Quin" is one of Agatha Christie's most beloved early books, a collection of twelve short stories centered around the enigmatic Mr. Harley Quin and his friend, Mr. Satterthwaite. 

Satterthwaite, a wealthy and observant man, often finds himself in social situations where hidden emotions and past secrets linger. Each time, the mysterious Mr. Quin appears unexpectedly, guiding Satterthwaite to uncover the truth behind puzzling deaths, love affairs, and moral dilemmas. The stories blend mystery with elements of the supernatural and romance, exploring themes of fate, guilt, and redemption. 

An unusual and delightful departure from Christie's usual straightforward detective novels, "The Mysterious Mr. Quin" is presented here in its original and unabridged format.

About Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie is perhaps the world's best-known writer of mysteries and detective fiction. The author of sixty-six novels and fourteen collections of short stories, Christie is the best-selling author in literary history and sales of her books are said to number more than two billion. In addition, her play "The Mousetrap" is the world's longest running show, having run on the West End of London since 1952. She is universally acknowledged to be the "Queen of Crime," a title trademarked by her estate. Christie began submitting her mystery stories to publishers in the 1910's, but they were all rejected until, in 1920, she created her first Hercule Poirot novel, "The Mysterious Affair at Styles." She would go on to write thirty-eight novels and stories featuring Poirot, the stuffy but brilliant Belgian detective, including "Murder on the Orient Express" and "Death on the Nile." In the late 20's, Christie created Miss Jane Marple, a mild-mannered but brilliantly incisive old woman who lives in a tiny British village and helps the police to unravel a number of baffling mysteries. Miss Marple would appear in a dozen novels and twenty short stories. Agatha Christie often worked at a furious pace, sometimes churning out two or more novels a year. Her book "And Then There Were None" is one of the world's best-selling novels, having sold over a hundred million copies. Her books have been adapted into countless movies, television shows, and stage plays and have cemented Christie as the premiere mystery writer of all time.
