A country house. A murder. An international conspiracy.

When Anthony Cade agrees to deliver a package to Chimneys, an English country estate, he expects a simple assignment. Instead, he finds himself caught in a dangerous web of murder, political intrigue, stolen secrets, and an attempt to restore the monarchy of the distant kingdom of Herzoslovakia.

As mysterious guests gather at Chimneys, nothing is quite what it seems. Scotland Yard and the French S�ret� struggle to unravel the case as suspicion spreads through the country house. Then a murder transforms the gathering into a deadly mystery.

First published in 1925, The Secret of Chimneys combines the classic country-house mystery with international intrigue, secret identities, political conspiracies, and a fast-moving murder investigation. The novel also marks the first appearance of Superintendent Battle, one of Agatha Christie's recurring detectives.

A classic mystery of deception, danger, and hidden secrets, The Secret of Chimneys offers readers a lively early Christie novel filled with twists and intrigue.
