The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. Widely regarded as Agatha Christie's masterpiece, the solution to this Hercule Poirot mystery created an international sensation.
The Murder at the Vicarage. Perhaps more surprising than the revelation of the murderer is the detective who cracks the case. Miss Jane Marple has arrived on the scene, and crime literature's private men's club of great detectives will never be the same.
The Body in the Library, the hugely popular Miss Marple mystery that turns the old problem of a corpse in one's library on its head.
They Came to Baghdad, the electrifying and apropos spy thriller in which a young heroine must take on a Baghdad-based conspiracy that threatens world peace.

Christie's works have been dramatized for television and/or cinema,
