One of the new Agatha Christie Signature Edition paperbacks — combining love, death and melodrama blended together as only Agatha Christie can. Gipsys Acre was a truly beautiful upland site with views out to sea — and in Michael Rogers it stirred a child-like fantasy. There, amongst the dark fir trees, he planned to build a house, find a girl and live happily ever after. Yet, as he left the village, a shadow of menace hung over the land. For this was the place where accidents happened. Perhaps Michael should have heeded the locals warnings: Theres no luck for them as meddles with Gipsys Acre. Michael Rogers is a man who is about to learn the true meaning of the old saying In my end is my beginning...

A unique offering from the Queen of Crime. This Agatha Christie Signature Edition features the hero the world-famous author was most fond of — Mr Harley Quin, the enigmatic friend and counterpart of the rational Mr Satterthwaite. So far, it had been a typical New Years Eve house party. But Mr Satterthwaite — a keen observer of human nature — sensed that the real drama of the evening was yet to unfold. So it proved when a mysterious stranger arrived after midnight. Who was this Mr Quin? And why did his presence have such a pronounced effect on Eleanor Portal, the woman with the dyed-black hair?

«Sir Claud Amory’s revolutionary new formula for a powerful explosive is stolen. Locking his house-guests in the library, Sir Claud switches off the lights to allow the thief to replace the formula, no questions asked. When the lights come on, he is dead, and Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings have to unravel a tangle of family feuds, old flames and suspicious foreigners to find the killer and prevent a global catastrophe. «Black Coffee» was Agatha Christie’s first playscript, originally performed in 1930 and made into a now rarely-seen film the following year. Combining her typically beguiling plot and sparkling dialogue with his own faithful narrative, Charles Osborne’s novelisation is «A worthy addition to the Christie canon».»
