From the brilliant pen of Agatha Christie comes the first novel in her Tommy and Tuppence mystery series featuring the beloved sleuthing duo--now a movie on both Acorn TV and PBS.

Tommy and Tuppence are young, in love... and flat broke. Restless for excitement, they decide to embark on a daring business scheme: Young Adventurers Ltd.--willing to do anything, go anywhere. But they get more than they bargained for when their first assignment for the sinister Mr. Whittington draws them into a diabolical conspiracy.

It isn't long before they find themselves plunged into more danger than they ever could have imagined--a danger that could put an abrupt end to their business...and their lives.
