Adaptations of Agatha Christie's Plays…

May 27, 2008

While I was on vacation last week, I got an interesting request from a site reader:

"I have a book entitled Black Coffee which is an adaptation of something by Agatha Christie by Charles Osborne.  Do you know of any other authors who have adapted her work into books?  I’ve found two more he did and ordered them, but would like to know if there are any more by other authors. 

Thank you."
 
Black Coffee was a play written by Christie which was adapted into a novel by Charles Osborne. To be honest, I didn’t know that even one author had adapted one of her plays. When I looked at Amazon, I found the two other books that Osborne adapted from two other Agatha Christie plays: The Unexpected Guest and Spider’s Web.
 
Does anyone out there in Cozy Mystery cyberspace know of any other authors who have adapted one of Christie’s plays into novels? If you do… We would love to hear from you!

    No other authors, only Charles Osbourne, who is Agatha Christie’s grandson. He novelized three plays written by her; the titles you have already guessed. If you ever find a copy of Black Coffee from the leather bound Agatha Christie Mystery Collection by Bantam books, please let me know..
    Thanks,
    Christopher
