The Mysterious Mr Quin Series: The Dead Harlequin, the Shadow on the Glass, the Soul of the Croupier, the Sign in the Sky and Other
Description
The Mysterious Mr Quin series by Agatha Christie offers a unique blend of mystery, romance, and the supernatural, unlike her traditional detective novels. The collection follows the refined and observant Mr. Satterthwaite, who frequently finds himself drawn into mysterious situations-always accompanied by the sudden and almost magical appearance of the elusive Mr. Harley Quin. Each of the twelve short stories explores unresolved crimes or emotional dilemmas from the past, which are brought to light through conversation, observation, and intuition. Mr. Quin acts less like a traditional detective and more like a catalyst-guiding Mr. Satterthwaite to perceive hidden truths and emotional undercurrents that solve each case. Elegant, haunting, and deeply human, this series delves into the psychology of its characters, combining suspense with an almost poetic sense of fate and justice. Christie weaves atmosphere and subtle drama into every story, making the Mr. Quin mysteries a captivating and unconventional reading experience. Contents: -The Coming of Mr. Quin -The Shadow on the Glass -At the Bells and Motley -The Sign in the Sky -The Soul of the Croupier -The Man from the Sea -The Voice in the Dark -The Face of Helen -The Dead Harlequin -The Bird with the Broken Wing -The World's End -Harlequin's Lane
