Postern of Fate
Agatha Christie
Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are just settling into their
new home in the resort town of Hollowquay when they come
across a collection of children’s books hidden away by a
previous owner. But the message left in one of them is
hardly child’s play: Mary Jordan did not die naturally.
Thanks to the long and colorful memory of the local
gossips, the Laurel’s former occupant has been kept very
much alive – at least in spirit. So have the questions
about the woman’s real identity, her strange and powerful
secrets, and the warnings that someone in Hollowquay wants
to keep Mary Jordan’s mysterious life – and death – a
secret forever…
