get yourself a mysterious man in motley who shows up to guide you to romantic mysteries that need solving Rereading some Agatha Christie and I was really struck by the intensity of this conversation - Mr. Quin is such a unique character in Christie's work. Her detectives are wonderful characters that answer questions. Mr. Quin...is a wonderful character that raises a lot of questions!
