I've finished "The Christie Curse" the 1st book in her Book Collector Mystery series by Victoria Abbott.
In
1926, Agatha Christie disappeared — making headlines across the world —
only to show up eleven days later at a spa under an assumed name.
During those eleven days, did she have time to write a play?
Jordan
Kelly needs a new job and a new place to live. She’s back in Harrison
Falls, New York, living with her not so law-abiding uncles, in debt
thanks to a credit card–stealing ex and pending grad school loans.
Enter
the perfect job, a research position that includes room and board,
which will allow her to spend her days hunting down rare mysteries for
an avid book collector. There’s just one problem: her employer, Vera Van
Alst — the most hated citizen of Harrison Falls.
Jordan’s
first assignment is to track down a rumored Agatha Christie play. It
seems easy enough, but Jordan soon finds out that her predecessor was
killed while looking for it, and there is still someone out there
willing to murder to keep the play out of Vera’s hands. Jordan’s new job
is good but is it worth her life?
