Tommy and Tuppence Beresford were restless for adventure,so when they were asked to take over Blunt's International Detective Agency,they leapt at the chance.

'Sherlock Holmes,John Thorndyke,Father Brown and even Poirot are amiably parodied,and once or twice the solution as well as the dialogue is deliberately facetious.'Times Literary Supplement
Agatha Christie
The reigning queen of crime,Agatha Christie's life took her from her home in the Devon countryside to Cairo,Australia and,of course,a journey on the Orient Express. She created two of the most famous detectives in literature,the moustached Belgian super-sleuth Hercule Poirot and the deceptively genteel village investigator Miss Marple,as well as creating the longest running stage playThe Mousetrap.
