A mystery wrapped in an enigma, perhaps? In the last interview she gave, in 1974, for the Imperial War Museum sound archive regarding her memories as a volunteer nurse during the First World War, Agatha Christie replied that she would like to be remembered "as a good writer of detective and suspense novels". Most likely, that is how she is remembered. And it has already been half a century since her death (January 12, 1976).

Agatha Christie, known as the Queen of Crime, died on January 12, 1976, leaving behind an extensive bibliography that has delighted lovers of mysteries and detective stories. Her legacy has enjoyed second and third lives thanks to its numerous film and television adaptations. Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the British writer's death, Netflix is releasing a miniseries version of one of her novels, The Seven Dials Mystery. We review this proposal and other TV shows that serve to remind us of the figure of the iconic English writer.
