Partners in Crime : A Tommy and Tuppence Mystery: The Official Authorized Edition

After their triumphant recovery of a pink pearl, intriguing cases kept on coming their way: a stabbing on Sunningdale golf course; cryptic messages in the personal columns of newspapers; and even a box of poisoned chocolates. Join their investigations on a journey of mystery, thrill, and adventure. Agatha Christie’s Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are Partners in Crime—or rather partners in crime solving—and must demonstrate their deductive skills in a wide range of confounding cases after agreeing to take over Blunt’s International Detective Agency. Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are restless for adventure, so when they are asked to take over Blunt's International Detective Agency, they leap at the chance. Their first case is a success—the triumphant recovery of a pink pearl. Other cases soon follow—a stabbing on Sunningdale golf course; cryptic messages in the personal columns of newspapers; and even a box of poisoned chocolates. But can they live up to their slogan of "Any case solved in 24 hours"? "Six years have passed since the Beresfords first began their sleuthing partnership and marriage in 'The Secret Adversary'. Tommy now has a desk job with the British Secret Service, and Tuppence is at home. But when the chief of British Intelligence calls upon them to take over the International Detective Agency, which has been a tool of the Bolsheviks involved in spying activities, both are ready for a new adventure. Tommy poses as Mr. Blunt, the former head of the agency, incarcerated for espionage, and Tuppence masquerades as his secretary."--Uk.agathachristie.com "Tommy and Tuppence Beresford are restless for adventure, so when they are asked to take over Blunt's International Detective Agency, they leap at the chance.
