Agatha Christie and the Eleven Missing Days

In December 1926 the celebrated crime writer Agatha Christie disappeared from her home in Berkshire, leaving her car abandoned off a Surrey road. The story was front-page news. She was identified in a Harrogate hotel eleven days later, claiming to be the victim of amnesia caused by a driving accident.
Up till now none of her biographers has come up with definitive evidence as to how Agatha Christie spent the days after she went missing or whether her memory loss was genuine.
Claims by previous biographers that the writer never gave her own explanation of the incident during her lifetime are in error; in his new book, Jared Cade reproduces Agatha's own written account which gives the reader insight into why she was forced to collude in the family cover-up. He has unearthed startling new evidence, including accounts by Agatha's relatives, that reveal for the first time why she staged the disappearance with the help of a friend and how it all went terribly wrong.
Meticulously researched and illustrated with many photographs never before seen, this biography provides the definitive key to the author's life and works.
