Dame Agatha Christie reigns supreme as the 'Queen of Crime.' Numerous books have been written about the legendary crime writer, focusing on nearly every aspect of her craft. But until now no one has carried out an in-depth investigation into how she conquered the serial market with her thrilling tales of murder and intrigue. In the UK and US, Agatha Christie's work was serialized in the most prestigious magazines and newspapers of the day, often under an array of different titles, prior to being published by Collins and Dodd, Mead and Company. Second serial rights could result in a single title being syndicated to over 40 newspapers. Over the decades, numerous records have been lost or destroyed and keeping track of her literary legacy has proved a major challenge for her publishers, literary agents and others until now. Jared Cade, author of the ground-breaking biography Agatha Christie and the Eleven Missing Days, has unearthed a huge plethora of hitherto unknown facts about the timeline of her publishing history that will delight her devotees and enable future generations to write about her work with far greater authority and accuracy than ever before, especially when correlating her publications to the parallels in her life. Illustrated with rare pictures, Secrets from the Agatha Christie Archives is destined to become an essential reference tool for fans, librarians, scholars, antiquarian booksellers, broadcasters and others interested in the making of one of the 20th century's most beloved writers. 'Jared Cade is an acknowledged authority on Christianna' ? Crime Time AUTHOR: Jared Cade is the Amazon number one bestselling author of Agatha Christie and the Eleven Missing Days. He is a former tour guide for a bespoke luxury travel company, escorting parties around Agatha Christie's home, Greenway, which is now open to the public courtesy of the National Trust. During an appearance on the British television quiz The $64,000 Question, he won the top prize on his specialist subject of Agatha Christie's novels. Jared Cade is also the creator of the Lyle Revel and Hermione Bradbury mysteries. The crime-solving duo take centre stage in his latest book The Elusive Dietrich which is cited by the writer and crime fiction aficionado Philip Harbottle as 'an intricate page-turner with a brilliant and unexpected denouement in the tradition of Agatha Christie.'
