1 author picked The Hollow as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Everyone knows Agatha Christie’s most famous novels but when you dig a little deeper, you start to really uncover her genius.
The Hollow is slow, careful, and spectacularly mature for a genre novel. Legend has it that Christie didn’t like her detective, Hercule Poirot, so maybe that’s why she stuck him in such a difficult situation. A murder occurs right before his eyes, and the killer is there, holding a gun.
