Description
Twelve stories from the 1930 collection are linked by the most elusive hero Agatha Christie ever created. Harley Quin appears and disappears entirely unexpectedly, intervening in events almost imperceptibly, yet leaving behind the transformed or newly reopened destinies of both the living and the long dead. It is not for nothing that he calls himself the “advocate of the dead.” The stories featuring Mr Quin have a more melodramatic atmosphere, but they contain one of Christie’s essential ingredients: calculated murder. A corpse may form part of the setting in the drawing rooms of ancient family estates, or be surrounded by the fashionable atmosphere of seaside resorts and luxurious hotels, where beautiful women rustle in expensive gowns while concealing dark secrets. The contents are in Czech.
