By the Pricking of My Thumbs & Postern of Fate

TWO BESTSELLING MYSTERIES IN ONE GREAT PACKAGE! 


BY THE PRICKING OF MY THUMBS

Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, Agatha Christie’s delightful sleuthing duo, investigate the strange and troubling doings behind the scenes at a gothic British nursing home in By the Pricking of My Thumbs

When Tommy and Tuppence visit an elderly aunt in her gothic nursing home, they think nothing of her mistrust of the doctors; after all, Ada is a very difficult old lady.

But when Mrs. Lockett mentions a poisoned mushroom stew and Mrs. Lancaster talks about ''something behind the fireplace,'' Tommy and Tuppence find themselves caught up in a spine-chilling adventure that could spell death for either of them.

POSTERN OF FATE

Tommy and Tuppence Beresford return in Agatha Christie’s classic Postern of Fate, to investigate a deadly poisoning sixty years after the fact.

Tommy and Tuppence Beresford have just become the proud owners of an old house in an English village. Along with the property, they have inherited some worthless bric-a-brac, including a collection of antique books. While rustling through a copy of The Black Arrow, Tuppence comes upon a series of apparently random underlinings.

However, when she writes down the letters, they spell out a very disturbing message: ''Mary Jordan did not die naturally.'' And sixty years after their first murder, Mary Jordan's enemies are still ready to kill. . . .
