The Case of the Christie Curse is a rousing old school mystery starring famous golden age writers. In 1930, the main characters, Eliza and Theo, have been invited by Agatha Christie to join her on an archaeological dig in the desert of Mesopotamia. Once there, they dismiss the curse rumors of the locals and search for a living thief of missing historical treasures. While investigating, Eliza and Theo are increasingly attracted to each other. But once a suspicious death occurs, they must focus on discovering the perpetrator.
I love Eliza and her trusty beagle Queenie. I really felt I got to know all the characters well even the historic ones. It was fun to see Agatha flirt when during my entire life the real Agatha was an elderly widow lady. Overall, if you like golden age fiction or just a fun romantic mystery, don’t miss The Case of the Christie Curse. 4 stars!
