Description
The Sinking Admiral by Agatha Christie and 13 other authors is a collaborative whodunit that brings together twelve members of the Detection Club to create an original, ebullient mystery. Set in the Suffolk seaside village of Crabwell, the story revolves around The Admiral pub, its landlord Geoffrey Horatio Fitzsimmons, and his tethered boat. When Fitzsimmons is found dead, the villagers assume a simple case of suicide, but the arrival of a television documentary team sets off a chain of events that will keep readers guessing until the very end. The Sinking Admiral continues a tradition established by the Detection Club's founders in 1931 when they wrote The Floating Admiral. Now, 85 years later, 14 leading crime writers have repeated this unique game of literary consequences, producing an original and archetypal whodunit that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. Edited by Simon Brett, OBE, this collaborative novel is a testament to the enduring power of mystery and suspense. With its intricate plot and unexpected twists, The Sinking Admiral is sure to appeal to fans of crime fiction.
