    内容简介

    This is a facsmile first edition hardback of the Poirot books, published to mark the 80th anniversary of his first appearance and to celebrate his new-found success on television. There's a serial killer on the loose, bent on working his way through the alphabet. And as a macabre calling card, he leaves beside each victim's corpe the ABC Railway Guide open at the name of the town where the murder has taken place. Having begun with Andover, Bexhill and then Churston, there seems little chance of the murderer being caught - until he makes the crucial and vain mistake of challenging Hercule Poirot to frustrate his plans! To mark the 80th anniversary of Hercule Poirot's first appearance, and to celebrate his renewed fortunes as a primetime television star, this collection of facsimile first editions will be the perfect way to enjoy these books in their original form - 15 novels and one short story collection. Reproducing the original typesetting and formats of the first editions from the Christie family's own archive copies, these books sport the original covers which have been painstakingly restored from the best available copies, reflecting five decades of iconic cover design.

      《ABC谋杀案》是一部精心蕴涵技巧于无形的杰作,其独树一帜让人折服。故事讲述:一个逍遥法外的连环杀手通过字母表一步一步实施犯罪。作为死亡标记,杀手在每个被害人的尸体旁留下一本ABC铁路旅行指南,翻开的那页就是杀人之地。
      先是在安多弗,接着是贝克斯希尔海滩,然后是克拉克爵士被发现谋杀与彻斯顿的海边小径。看起来继续作恶的凶手毫无被擒的希望,直到凶手自己犯了一个致命的错误——向波洛挑战杀人计划…… 当第四封信到来,并宣布下一次作案地点是唐克斯特时,不仅媒体给予了铺天盖地的报道,苏格兰场也部署了大量警力来防范。 
      那么罪犯能得手吗?动机到底是什么?罪犯是谁?

    作者简介

    Agatha Christie was born in Torquay in 1890 and became, quite simply, the best-selling novelist in history. Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, written towards the end of the First World War, introduced us to Hercule Poirot, who was to become the most popular detective in crime fiction since Sherlock Holmes. She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in 44 foreign languages. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.

      阿加莎·克里斯蒂,原姓米勒,全名为阿加莎·玛丽·克拉丽莎·米勒,英国乃至世界文坛的侦探小说大师。1890年9月15日生于英国德文郡托基的阿什菲尔德宅邸,1976年1月12日,逝世于英国牛津郡的沃灵福德家中,安葬在牛津郡的圣玛丽教堂墓园,终年85岁。   
      阿加莎·克里斯蒂的父亲是英籍美国人弗雷德里克·阿尔瓦·米勒,母亲是英国人克拉丽莎·克拉拉·伯契默·米勒。她是家中的的第3个孩子,有1个姐姐玛格丽特·弗蕾莉·米勒和1个哥哥路易斯·蒙坦特·米勒。   
      阿加莎·克里斯蒂是一名高产的作家,她的作品不仅局限于侦探小说,全部作品包括66部长篇推理小说,21部短篇或中篇小说选集,15个已上演或已发表的剧本,3个剧本集,6部以笔名玛丽·维斯特麦考特发表的情感小说,2部以笔名阿加莎·克里斯蒂·马洛温发表的作品(包括记录异域生活的回忆录1部,宗教题材的儿童读物1部),1部自传,2部诗集,2本与侦探俱乐部的会员作家们合写的长篇推理小说(2本共3部)。阿加莎·克里斯蒂著作数量之丰仅次于莎士比亚。  阿加莎·克里斯蒂开创了侦探小说的"乡间别墅派",即凶杀案发生在一个特定封闭的环境中,而凶手也是几个特定关系人之一。欧美甚至日本很多侦探作品也是使用了这一模式。   
      阿加莎·克里斯蒂一生有过2次婚姻,第1任丈夫是阿奇博尔德·克里斯蒂(离异);第2任丈夫是马克斯·马洛温。她同第一任丈夫有过1个女儿罗莎琳德·克里斯蒂。 她在晚年回忆自己的写作生涯,动笔写了一部自传。《阿加莎·克里斯蒂自传》是一本文笔相当优美的传记文学。自传为读者了解这位"侦探女王"的生平,提供了第一手资料,并成为侦探小说史上的重要文献。   
      她的生平事迹,已拍成传记片《阿加莎》。
