Book Description :

The Queen of Mystery has come to Harper Collins! Agatha Christie, the acknowledged mistress of suspense-creator of indomitable sleuth Miss Marple, meticulous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, and so many other unforgettable characters-brings her entire oeuvre of ingenious whodunits, locked room mysteries, and perplexing puzzles to William Morrow Paperbacks. In addition, Christie created magnificent works of suspense for the theater, and eight of her riveting stage dramas are collected in The Mousetrap and Other Plays-including the title piece, the longest running play in history, still a smash hit in London's West End after 60 years!

Review
"Read Agatha Christie's books once again and catch glimpses of that most elusive, most reclusive author. Read for her heart-it's there to find." (Carolyn Hart, Agatha Award-winning author of the Death on Demand mysteries )
"The cleverest murder mystery of the British theater." (Daily Telegraph (London) on The Mousetrap )

From the Back Cover
On an isolated island, ten people have been brought together to be killed off. An evil old woman has a rendezvous with death in the desert heat of Jerusalem. A scheming wife testifies against her husband in a shocking murder trial. And a homicidal maniac terrorizes a group of snowbound guests to the refrain of "Three Blind Mice."
This collection of eight works sho how Agatha Christie's plays are as compulsive as her novels, with their colorful characters and ingenious plots providing yet more evidence of her mastery of the detective thriller.
