An immortal classic of world detective fiction! Agatha Christie, the Queen!
“The Mysterious Affair at Styles” is Agatha Christie’s very first novel. In this book, published in 1920, the reader meets for the first time the most famous detective of the 20th century—the mustachioed Belgian, Hercule Poirot—and also his friend and assistant, Hastings. It is here that Poirot is first given the chance to demonstrate his deductive abilities and uncover the mysterious crime (the poisoning of Mrs. Inglethorp, the owner of the Styles estate), relying on all the well-known facts.
