8. So when she sat to write a novel, the plot was ready from the beginning to the end.
9. She had a special notebook, where she recorded the ideas come to her mind, the images of the characters, the newspaper clippings about crimes and notes on poisons.
10. Worldwide Agatha Christie associated with such detective as Hercule Poirot. This intelligent Belgian is hero of 88 pieces.

13. Christie also released a collection of 12 short stories, "Investigates Parker Pine". It’s not ordinary detective fiction – the plot is not about a crime, but of the history of Pine agency’s clients, who are not satisfied with their life. Agatha always said that her victim's life is more interesting for her than the murderer’s.
14. Agatha then started new line of creative: she began to write about Tommy and Tuppence Beresford. This young family of amateur-detectives has been firstly met with readers with blackmail (for the sake of money and interest).

17. Very remarkable story is associated with the last published book – "Curtain". Christie hesitated to publish it for a long time, as if she felt, it would be her end.
18. In this story Hercule Poirot dies at Styles, solving another murder. The Poirot’s game ended, and Agatha Christie's life came to an end too.
19. The farewell Poirot’s letter to Hastings is like Agatha’s parting with her readers. Agatha Christie said to her friend the next: "I always adored choc-ice. One day a delicious cold dish will be cooked for dear old lady, so she goes on an icy road – and won’t return..."
20. Agatha Christie died on 12 January 1976, a year later the triumph of her latest book.
21. I want to finish my speech with my impressions about so amazingly great woman as Agatha Christie. I can talk for hours about this person, because she manages to captivate my feelings with her writing. It is sincerely pity, that such great woman, that beautify our life, left this world.
