The Agatha Christie Cure

One of those books that felt like an old friend, from the very first page. So honest, and funny and somehow . . . kind. It made me want to read a little Christie, it made me want to read all of Rentzenbrink. I'll return to it again and again -- MEG MASON
A beautiful exploration - written with grace and overwhelming honesty - of two women's despair and how one helps the other -- GREG WISE
A wonderfully warm, generous, wise and comforting book about getting through dark times and the mystery of life with a bit of help from Agatha Christie. Full of insights on Christie, on divorce, on parenting, on midlife, it's just a gorgeous, immersive read -- SAMANTHA ELLIS
In this bold, brave and beautiful memoir, Cathy skillfully charts Agatha Christie's timeline and with deft skill, weaves her own path of recovery from burnout and a loss of self -- MANNI COE
What a wonderful book! So very human, full of brilliant writing that is honest and funny while not veering away from the hard stuff. A book for all readers, whether they consider themselves Christie aficionados or not. I loved it -- LOUISE HARE
Cathy Rentzenbrink is the ideal guide to the queen of cosy crime. Agatha Christie emerges as a flawed and formidable heroine, whilst Cathy's charming, convivial voice makes the darkness slip down like sparkling cyanide -- CLARE POLLARD
A warm, funny, touchingly honest exploration of loss, grief and the damage we do when we get in a muddle. The book reaches back across a century to find light in the darkest times and reconnect with the redemptive power of love, hope and the imagination. I loved it -- CLARE CLARK
Wise, brave and beautifully written, an education not just in Agatha, but in life -- DAVID WHITEHOUSE
Tender, candid and deeply intelligent. I found myself rooting for both Agatha and Cathy throughout this remarkable book -- HANNAH LOWE
Cathy makes an intelligent, sharp-eyed detective as she investigates both Agatha's world and her own. Both women are fabulous company and Cathy's honesty and ability to draw parallels makes The Agatha Christie Cure a compelling companion on a journey through Agatha's literature and Cathy's life. -- JULIA WHEELER
