The Disappearance of Emily Marr: From the Sunday Times bestselling author of OUR HOUSE

Product Information

Agatha Christie’s world-famous mystery thriller, reissued with a striking new cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers. When Emily Marr begins an affair with her married neighbour, the celebrated surgeon Arthur Woodhall, she has no idea of the tragedy and scandal their actions will cause.

It's a family drama, more, rather than less, and much of it is set in a posh London neighborhood, just the kind I love to read about. Award-winning DP Stuart Harris, has worked on such films as Ken Russell’s The Boyfriend and David Hare’s Wetherby, as well as more than 4000 ads and music videos, including Pink Floyd's High Hopes. The way that happens really is very dark sometimes, and it’s very disturbing to see how quickly it happens – how quickly people turn on a person.In the beginning, I didn't like her much at all, but she was treated so horribly, I did feel sympathy for her near the book's end. I love being surprised by a mystery, so I loved these unexpected twists, though one is extremely sad. We all learn on the go and a good producer will be a sponge; learning from their peers, industry allies etc.

Whilst I could clearly remember this twist upon re-reading, what that allowed me to do was really lose myself in all the other aspects of what makes this book such a fantastic read.I couldn't have asked for more, really, and feel so proud that readers are continuing to discover it and recommend it far and wide. For Dody, gathering clues from a body is often easier than handling the living—especially Chief Detective Inspector Pike. An entertaining book with some really well-drawn characters from the major to the minor, recognisable, three-dimensional personalities are a must in a book where the root of the book is in their actions and Louise Candlish has proved herself extremely accomplished in creating them for our enjoyment. Unfortunately, I found it did take a long time to get through and the ending just wasn't right for me. During her time with MJZ, Emily was also responsible for creating relationships with the likes of Sky, ITV, BBC and Netflix.
