Description Loosely based on the life of the great mystery writer Agatha Christie, on some of her famous creations and on themes from her tales.

In the south of England not long after World War 1, the unknown writer, Agatha Crispie, writes mystery stories. She longs for their publication, but her family despises her writing and ridicules her plots. Agatha gets a lucky break. A body is found in the library and there are suspects, amateur sleuths, red herrings and dithering cops. It's just like the life and characters of another scribbler, the slightly better-known Agatha Christie.
