Christmas with Agatha Christie naturally includes Hercule Poirot's gray cells and Miss Marple's indomitable curiosity: whether a ruby is hidden in the Christmas pudding or a cunning murder occurs during the season of love. But even without her two favorite characters, Agatha Christie can wonderfully tell stories about Christmas, even combining a crime story with a love story. Additionally, two entirely non-criminal, but reflective tales reveal the author in a completely unfamiliar light. As a bonus, there is also a very personal Christmas memory from the Queen of Crime.
