About the book

A collection of macabre mysteries, including the superlative story The Witness for the Prosecution

Twelve unexplained phenomena with no apparent earthly explanation

A dog-shaped gunpowder mark; an omen from the other side; a haunted house; a chilling seance; a case of split personalities; a recurring nightmare; an eerie wireless message; an elderly ladys hold over a young man; a disembodied cry of murder; a young mans sudden amnesia; a levitation experience; a mysterious SOS.

To discover the answers, delve into the supernatural storytelling of Agatha Christie.

About the Author

Agatha Christie

Born in Torquay in 1890, Agatha Christie began writing during the First World War and wrote over 100 novels, plays and short story collections. She was still writing to great acclaim until her death, and her books have now sold over a billion copies in English and another billion in over 100 foreign languages. Yet Agatha Christie was always a very private person, and though Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple became household names, the Queen of Crime was a complete enigma to all but her closest friends.
