A classic British thriller with unexpected twists. The mediocre dramatist John Terry has lured the respected theatre critic Arthur “Agatha” Christie to his flat for a secret meeting. The irritable and arrogant critic is shocked to learn that his homosexual lover is having an affair with the dramatist’s young wife. He is even more shocked to hear the author’s solution to their mutual problem: Murder! Throughout the story it becomes evident that the seemingly jealous cuckold’s real intention is to kill Arthur who is blamed for ruining Terry’s career by destroying his plays with bad reviews. “[…] there is a wonderful irony in the way the critic is slowly destroyed by simple words in much the same way his own vicious critiques must have shattered its subjects. […] “Who Killed Agatha Christie?” is an effective thriller with enough twists to keep you guessing till the end […]” – BBC
