The Mystery of Mrs. Christie by Marie Benedict
4.0

This is definitely my favorite yet of Marie Benedict's books. Like her, I am a fan of Agatha Christie's mysteries. Benedict's book is a wonderful mystery in and of itself while containing many elements of Agatha's life.

In a way, the books Marie Benedict have written could count as mysteries unveiled. She takes facts of a person's life and uses those nuggets around which to construct the person's story. Yet, she writes historical fiction because she was not present to garner the full force of that person's reality. Hence, it is a mystery that she is trying to solve.

In any case, I didn't want to put this book down, and that is what usually happens when reading a mystery that resonates with me. So, if you like Agatha Christie, if you like a good mystery, and if you have curiosity about the explanation for the reason Christie disappeared (this is a fact), you will likely enjoy this book.
