The Secret Adversary was my first encounter with Agatha Christie.
Well…not exactly.
The translated version of The Secret Adversary was my first encounter with Agatha Christie. I was fond of mysteries - I grew up reading stories like Enid Blyton’s Famous Five and Secret Seven, and Gosho Aoyama’s Detective Conan (whose ending, to this day, is still nowhere in sight). I guess it was just a matter of time before I encountered the Queen of Crime herself. And though not everything may be believable, The Secret Adversary successfully sold me on the Agatha Christie's mysteries through its hilarity and - of course - plot twist. Down the rabbit hole I went, devouring any Christie books I could get my hands on.
