Dear Librarians,

Here's an alarming adage: "If you want to know about a man's job, ask his wife. If you want to know about a man's wife, ask his mistress."

In 1926, Agatha Christie's husband demanded a divorce so he could marry another woman. The author became so distraught she disappeared for eleven days — not even returning when the hunt for her was splashed on the front cover of every newspaper in the world. THE CHRISTIE AFFAIR imagines this hundred-year-old mystery from the perspective of the one person nobody ever thought to ask: her husband's mistress.
