Agatha Christie – The Mysterious Mr. Quin – First Edition
£1,275.00
A first edition, first printing of ‘The Mysterious Mr Quin’ by Agatha Christie, published by Collins in 1930. A very good book without inscriptions. Stands very square and corners are sharp. Some fairly heavy spotting to the page edges and some light scattered spotting. The Mysterious Mr. Quin is a collection of short stories by Agatha Christie, first published in 1930. The stories revolve around Mr. Harley Quin, a mysterious and enigmatic figure who appears at crucial moments to assist his friend, Mr. Satterthwaite, in solving complex mysteries. Quin’s role is almost supernatural, often serving as a catalyst for Satterthwaite’s insights. Each story blends elements of the detective genre with the mystical, as Quin’s appearances and disappearances are often unexplained. The collection is unique in Christie’s oeuvre for its blend of mystery, drama, and a touch of the paranormal.
