Agatha Christie's association with Ealing is little known. Yet it played a pivotal part in her upbringing, for she was a frequent visitor there, staying at her Auntie- Grannie's home. Several of her family were burried in Ealing. It provided inspirations for several of her stories as well as for one of her most famous characters. Ealing was also where she was first published in 1901. This book explores the Ealing that Agatha Christie knew, when it was known as Queen of the Suburbs in the Edwardian era.
