Partners in Crime Who is the beautiful actress whose trail leads to a perfectly staged murder? What are a mother and daughter to do when a haunted house becomes their deadly inheritance? Where better than a costume ball to conceal the identity of a masked killer? A variety of uncanny crimes calls for a variety of resolve. In this “hilarious burlesque of detective fiction” (New York Times), two of Agatha Christie’s most adventurous sleuths, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, adopt the methods and manners of every major literary detective from Hercule Poirot to Sherlock Holmes to piece together an increasingly complex series of delightfully different – and deadly – misdeeds.
