What an interesting take on the Agatha Christie mystery of her disappearance. I liked reading it from Nan's point of view. But I also hated it so much. I wanted to like her character. But the whole time I read it I just wanted to deck her in the face. Still a good read!

The twists and turns of the book kept me engaged and eager to keep reading! I really enjoyed this book and it’s not-so-cliche ending and story lines.

Fun mix of realistic historical fiction with a bit of speculation, romance, and mystery thrown into the mix. It was an odd approach to have your narrator and protagonist be the mistress of Agatha Christie's husband, narrating the real time that Agatha went missing, and yet de Gramont pulls it off.
