A witty and structurally brilliant return of Tommy & Tuppence — a detective novel that is also a commentary on detective fiction.

In Partners in Crime (1929), Agatha Christie revives Tommy and Tuppence Beresford and places them at the head of a detective agency, turning each case into a stylistic experiment: every chapter echoes a different school or master of crime fiction. The result is both narrative entertainment and a lucid reflection on how detective stories are built. A key text for understanding Christie’s technical intelligence — playful in surface, rigorous in design.
