At Bertram's Hotel - Agatha Christie ... little did the literary world realise that Agatha Christie, already famous for her early Poirot titles, was introducing a character who would become the best-loved female sleuth of all time. The 14 Marple books would appear at intervals over the next 49 years, with Miss Marple's Final Cases published in 1979, three years after Agatha's death. To mark the 75th anniversary of Miss Marple's first appearance, and to celebrate her renewed fortunes as a prime time television star, this collection of facsimile first editions will be the perfect way to enjoy these books in their original form, that is the 12 novels and two short story collections. Reproducing the original typesetting and formats from the first editions from the Christie family's own archive copies; these books sport the original covers which have been painstakingly restored from the best available copies, reflecting five decades of iconic cover design.

 ... the past and the realities of the present, resulting in its long standing popularity. Moreover, as the story progresses, it becomes increasingly evident that the reader is meant to think that there is something else going on, something less benign.

Rating:

To its guests, Bertram's Hotel offered an oasis of comfort and old fashioned respectability. Whether it was the authentic full English breakfasts, the high backed chairs, the redoubtable staff or even the clientele themselves, the establishment appeared to have remained unchanged since the Edwardian era. For Jane Marple, returning there after an absence of fifty years, the place was reassuringly familiar, a pleasing reminder of when she was a young girl.
