Agatha Christie is the most famous mystery writer in the world. In fact\, the \;Guinness Book of World Records&n bsp\;goes further and lists Christie as the best-selling novelist of all t ime. Her novels have sold roughly 2 billion copies\, and her estate claims that her works come third in the rankings of the world's most-widely publ ished books\, behind only Shakespeare's works and the Bible. Who was this remarkable woman? How did she come to write her indelible works? Why is sh e still such a popular literary figure? These and other questions will be explored along with a real life mystery about Christie&rsquo\;s dramatic d isappearance in 1926 that remains substantially unsolved to this day.
\ nLed by Dr. Bill Thierfelder\, a retired college professor who taught a variety of Arts and Humanities courses for 32 years at several New York u niversities and colleges\, including St. John's University and Dowling Col lege.
