The Case of the Missing Lady

A classic Agatha Christie short story, available individually for the first time as an ebook.

When a six foot tanned giant of man comes into Albert Blunt’s International Detective agency the sly, comical duo Tommy and Tuppence are in for a treat. Not only has Mr. Stavansson remerged after a two year arctic adventure but he’s lost his fiancée Hermione too. What telegrams and scraps of information Tommy and Tuppence, married couple and detecting aficionados, can gather are all the hope the adventurer has. But the telegrams lead the duo into rather a dangerous situation, swarming up ladders in the dead of night into secluded country houses, and that’s only the start of it.
