Description

On this day in 1926, famed mystery novelist Agatha Christie vanished from her home in Berkshire, England, sparking one of the most bizarre and captivating missing persons cases in British history. Her empty car was discovered near a chalk quarry the next morning, igniting a national manhunt that drew in over a thousand police officers, 15,000 volunteers, and even fellow crime writers like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

For 11 days, the “Queen of Crime” was at the center of a real-life mystery that captivated the world. Was it a nervous breakdown, a fugue state, a calculated escape—or something else entirely? When she was finally found at a spa hotel in Harrogate, registered under a false name, she claimed to remember nothing.
