The Mysterious Disappearance of Agatha Christie by Arthur M. Jolly, directed by Leigh Wyatt Moore
A murder mystery…without a murder! In 1926, Agatha Christie vanished for eleven days, launching the largest manhunt in UK history. 15,000 volunteers and over 1,000 police officers combed the countryside for her. They were even joined by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator of Sherlock Holmes, and Dorothy L. Sayers, writer of the Lord Peter Whimsey mysteries. Three of the most celebrated writers of detective stories were caught up in a real-life mystery and here, fact and fiction are woven into a fanciful account of what might have happened, based on the day-by-day reporting of the case by the London Times.
