Agatha Christies Marple: Expert on Wickedness

In Agatha Christie’s Marple: Expert on Wickedness, ‘Agathologist’ Dr. Mark Aldridge examines nearly a century of St. Mary Mead’s most famous resident. Using his detective skills, he uncovers new insights into Miss Jane Marple’s appearances in literature, theatre, film, and beyond.

Drawing on both newly discovered and previously unpublished material, the book explores everything about Miss Marple—from her beginnings in Christie’s short stories to the recent bestselling HarperCollins collection Marple: Twelve New Stories.
