No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
This is a fast, entertaining read that imagines the story of Agatha Christie’s still unexplained 11-day disappearance. This book is a great fit for people who are fans of Agatha Christie, as it recreates her life as imagined by the author. I personally like historical fictions that imagine unknown parts of history, so I enjoyed this.
If you’re not a Christie fan, then I’m not sure how enjoyable this book would be. The writing isn’t the strongest, and some parts were kind of cringey, to be honest. The end felt a little rushed, even though I knew what would happen. But overall, it’s a fast beach or vacation read. I put this under the category of “borrow from the library.”
