What a fabulous looking tome.<br />i read the introduction and first chapter and scanned the indices. <br />As you remark in the introduction, the writing style makes the narrative jump off the page.<br />I’m looking forward to working my way through the book in the coming days as well as it being a reference work for years to come.<br />The indexes will be a source of further reading through the years, acting as illumination to crime reading.<br />Recently I managed to buy, at a reasonable outlay, the Heron Books-set of the complete Agatha Christie and ordered yesterday the two John Curran books on Agatha Christie named the appendix but recently reprinted in a combined edition. I’m sure these will act as a magnifying glass as I read her books.<br />Congratulations on a tremendous book, the result of so many hours research, <br /><br />Dave (David Blyth)<br /> David Blythnoreply@blogger.com
