The Secret of Chimneys

About this book

Set against the grand, secretive backdrop of Chimneys — a country house where aristocratic charm masks dangerous political secrets — Agatha Christie’s The Secret of Chimneys delivers a bracing blend of mystery, romance, and international intrigue. A favor to a friend pulls a resourceful young adventurer into a web of missing documents, shadowy conspirators, and a startling crime, forcing him to negotiate glittering social circles, eccentric retainers, and unpredictable allies as motives multiply and loyalties shift. Brisk, witty, and full of clever misdirection, this early Christie romp keeps the reader guessing while offering sharp observation and irresistible momentum until the last page.
