In December nineteen twenty-six, Agatha Christie — already one of Britain’s most successful novelists — vanished without explanation. Her abandoned car sparked a nationwide search, her husband became the prime suspect, and the press turned her disappearance into front-page news. Eleven days later, she was found alive in a hotel under another name — and never spoke of it again.
This episode examines the official records, competing theories, and the people whose lives defined one of the twentieth century’s most enduring real-life mysteries.
