Agatha Christie’s Young Adventurers
When the layperson with only a cursory knowledge of Agatha Christie’s books, they think of older detectives. Miss Marple is a senior citizen, and Poirot is a mature man as well. However, a significant portion of Christie’s books– around twenty percent– feature younger detectives, just starting out in their adult lives and seeking adventure and finding love.
Agatha Christie Ltd. has just published my profile of some of Christie’s younger detectives in “The Young Adventurers Reading List.” Check it out, if you are interested!
