The Clocks (Paperback)
Mrs. Pebmarsh, the blind owner of No.
19, denies all knowledge of ringing Sheila's secretarial agency and asking for her by name -- yet someone did. Nor does she own that many clocks.
And neither woman seems to know the victim. Colin Lamb, a young intelligence specialist working a case of his own at the nearby naval yard, happens to be on the scene at the time of Sheila Webb's ghastly discovery.
Lamb knows of only one man who can properly investigate a crime as bizarre and baffling as what happened inside No. 19 -- his friend and mentor, Hercule Poirot.
About The Author Agatha Christie is the bestselling author of all time. She has sold over two billion books worldwide and has been translated into over 45 languages.
In a writing career that spanned more than half a century, Agatha Christie wrote eighty novels and short story collections. She also wrote over a dozen plays, including The Mousetrap, which is now the longest running play in theatrical history.
Christie's first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, was the first to feature her eccentric Belgian detective Hercule Poirot. One of the most famous fictional creations of all time, Poirot's 'little grey cells' triumphed over some of the most devious criminal minds ever created in crime fiction.
Christie-s last published novel, Sleeping Murder, featured her other world-famous sleuth, the shrewdly inquisitive Miss Jane Marple of St. Mary Mead.
Miss Marple appears in twelve novels, and twenty short stories; the first novel to feature her was The Murder at the Vicarage in 1930. The Poirot and Marple novels have been widely dramatized in feature films and television movies.
Murder on the Orient Express (1974), Witness for the Prosecution (1957), And Then There Were None (1945), and Death on the Nile (1978) are a few of the successful films based on her works. Agatha Christie also wrote six romantic novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott.
She also wrote nonfiction: one book, Come Tell Me How you Live, describes her archaeological travels with her husband Max. The other two are collections of poems, stories, and verses, some with a religious theme.
She also wrote her autobiography which she completed in 1976. Although synonymous with crime fiction, the breadth of themes in her novels is quite extraordinary and she deserves her place as one of the best-loved writers of all time

Their study of the worlds most sacred sitesStonehenge, the Great Pyramids, Machu Picchu and many othersled them to an amazing discovery. These monuments formed a powerful and undeniable geometrical pattern, implying the existence of an ancient advanced civilization whose knowledge of the world was far wider than had previously been thought possible.
Presenting its argument with enormous persuasiveness, The Atlantis Blueprint makes a truly powerful claim: that our civilization is not the first to occupy the planetnor is it likely to be the last. Provides compelling evidence that Atlantis not only existed but was, in fact, the cradle of an advanced and highly sophisticated civilization that spanned the world as far back as 100,000 years ago.
