Agatha Christie

Dame Agatha Christie was born in Torquay, Devon, England on 15th September, 1890 . She was a British crime writer of novels, short story and plays . She also wrote romances under the name Mary Westmacott, but she is best remembered for her 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections ( especially those featuring Hercule Poirot or Miss Jane Marple ) , and her successful West End plays .
Personally I love her detective stories because it’s so real and hard to solve the mysteries. They keep you thinking all the time to find the murderer and the motive for the murder . Her most popular stories are "Murder On The Orient Express", "Death On The Nile" and "4.50 From Paddington".
Agatha had a daughter named Rosalind Hicks who died on 2004. Agatha herself died in Wallingford, Oxfordshire, England on 12th January 1976, aged 85 years old.
