Agatha Christie, salah satu penulis cerita misteri yang karya nya tak lekang oleh waktu, bahkan penerbit Gramedia pun sering mencetak ulang buku-buku karyanya. Agatha Christie terkenal dengan tokoh detektif ciptaanya yaitu Hercule Poirot dan Jane Marple, namun banyak sekali novel stand-alone/ one shot (bukan cerita Poirot dan Marple) tentang konspirasi, misteri dan kisah cinta romantis bahkan novel misteri yang sama sekali tidak ada Detektif nya seperti And Then There Were None.
Pengalamanya menjadi perawat pada saat perang, Ia menjadi lebih tahu mengenai toksin, farmasi dan bahan-bahan kimia lainya, yang sering kali muncul dalam ceritanya sebagai alat pembunuhan.
Christie memiliki minat seumur hidup terhadap arkeologi. Dia bertemu dengan suami keduanya, Sir Max Mallowan, seorang arkeolog terkemuka, dalam perjalanan ke situs penggalian di Ur pada tahun 1930. Namun ketenarannya sebagai penulis jauh melampaui ketenarannya dalam bidang arkeologi.Â
