Among the towering red cliffs of Petra, like some monstrous swollen Buddha, sat the corpse of Mrs Boynton. A tiny puncture mark on her wrist was the only sign of the fatal injection that had killed her. With only 24 hours available to solve the mystery, Hercule Poirot recalled a chance remark he'd overheard back in Jerusalem: 'You see, don't you, that she's got to be killed?' Mrs Boynton was, indeed, the most detestable woman he'd ever met.
Agatha Christie, renowned as the 'Queen of Crime,' is the author of over 100 works, most famously her mysteries featuring Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple. Her books have sold over two billion copies worldwide (she is outsold only by the Bible and Shakespeare). Most of Agatha Christie's works have been dramatized for television and/or cinema, notably Murder on the Orient Express. Christie's The Mousetrap (1952) is the longest-running play in history and is performed to this day at St. Martin's Theatre in London's West End. Agatha Christie was made a Dame Commander of the British Empire in 1971. She died in 1976. Please visit the official Agatha Christie website: www.agathachristie.com.
