About The Author
Over a long, prolific career, Agatha Christie (1890-1976) created two iconic characters in the mystery genre — Hercule Poirot and Miss Jane Marple — and wrote eighty crime novels and collections of stories, nineteen plays, six novels written as Mary Westmacott, an autobiography and a memoir, Come, Tell Me How You Live. Her play, The Mousetrap, is the longest-running play in history.

Bill Peschel is a former journalist who shares a Pulitzer Prize with the staff of The Patriot-News in Harrisburg, Pa. He also is a mystery fan who runs the Wimsey Annotations at Planetpeschel.com. The author of Writers Gone Wild (Penguin), he publishes through Peschel Press the 223B Casebook Series of Sherlockian parodies and pastiches; a collection of Sherlock Holmes stories featuring Mark Twain; reprints of Victorian true crime books; and annotated editions of mysteries by Dorothy L. Sayers and Agatha Christie. Peschel lives with his family in Hershey, where the air really does smell like chocolate.
