A Daughter's A Daughter By Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie proves herself to be more than a murder mystery writer with this tense, semi-autobiographical drama about the relationship between a mother and her only daughter. Attractive widow, Ann, is planning to marry again when her headstrong daughter, Sarah, returns from the war. Sarah disapproves of her mother’s choice and, for purely selfish reasons, sets about destroying Ann’s potential happiness. Is the consequent rift between mother and daughter irrevocable, or can there ever be some kind of reconciliation?

“Inter-woven patterns of behaviour gradually turn into a tightening garrotte.”

“A fascinating neglected curiosity... stands comparison with Rattigan at his best.”
