Irish historian and crime novelist Myles Dungan delivers a talk at the Mechanics' Institute exploring Agatha Christie's literary legacy 50 years after her death, covering her most famous characters like Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple and their impact on the mystery genre. The presentation also examines the 1926 incident when Christie mysteriously disappeared for ten days, triggering a major media frenzy and nationwide search. This is a lecture-style event that runs 12 PM on Monday, July 20 and blends literary analysis with historical investigation of one of the most puzzling episodes in Christie's life.
