The Christie Affair by Nina de Gramont | Agatha Christie Historical Mystery, Forbidden Affair & Murder | Rescued Romance

$18.00

Every story has its secrets. Every mystery has its motives.

 

In December 1926, legendary mystery writer Agatha Christie disappeared for eleven days. Her abandoned car was discovered beside a gloomy pond, her belongings were left inside, and a nationwide search failed to uncover where she had gone. Agatha eventually returned—but she never publicly explained what happened during those missing days.

 

The Christie Affair reimagines that famous mystery through the eyes of Nan O’Dea, the fictional mistress of Agatha’s husband, Archie Christie.

 

Nan has carefully worked her way into the Christies’ wealthy social circle and lured Archie away from his famous wife. But her reasons extend far beyond romance. Why is she so determined to destroy another woman’s marriage? What does her painful past have to do with Agatha’s disappearance? And how do heartbreak, revenge, and murder connect the two women?

 

As the truth unfolds across English country estates, luxurious hotels, and memories of Ireland, Nan’s story becomes an intricate mystery worthy of Agatha Christie herself.

 

Readers love The Christie Affair for its imaginative approach to a real unsolved mystery, beautifully layered characters, historical atmosphere, forbidden romance, and carefully placed twists. A Reese’s Book Club pick and New York Times bestseller, it blends fact with fiction to create a moving story of love, loss, revenge, survival, and redemption.

What is a Rescued Book?


A Rescued Book is a previously loved book that still has plenty of story left to give. It may show signs of its past life—like cover wear, bent corners, creases, markings, or other imperfections—but it’s still ready to be read and loved again.

What kind of wear or damage should I expect?


Every rescued book is different! You may find scuffs, creases, worn edges, stickers, writing, or other signs of previous ownership. Some may have only minor cosmetic flaws, while others are a little more well-loved. The imperfections are part of their story.

Why choose a Rescued Book instead of buying new?


Because great stories deserve another chapter! Rescued Books are a budget-friendly way to discover your next read while giving a perfectly readable book a new home. Plus, there’s something special about knowing your book has already been part of someone else’s reading journey—and now it gets to be part of yours.
