I received a copy of this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is the fictional story of the disappearance of Agatha Christie. I was so excited about the premise of this book as it is a mystery that does really fascinate me. It is also a mystery that frustrates me as I know we will never find out the truth. I thought that this would be a really fun take on the mystery but unfortunately it wasn’t. 

The story covered much heavier topics than I was expecting. It didn’t always keep my attention and I felt it jumped from one character to another without warning. At times I thought I was reading about Nan (the mistress) but it was actually Agatha and vice versa. Although I am certain that the events covered in the more hard hitting parts of the book did happen, I felt it wasn’t really believable within the context of the story of Agatha.
