Books - The Pale Horse


The Pale Horse (published in 1961) is a detective novel by Agatha Christie, featuring her novelist-cum-detective Ariadne Oliver.

Plot

Mark Easterbrook is drawn into a web of mystery when he unwittingly stumbles onto the trail of a murder-for-hire ring that uses thallium poisoning as its modus operandi.

This novel is notable amongst Christie's books as it is credited with having saved at least two lives, including that of a 19-month old infant, after readers recognised the symptoms of thallium poisoning from its description in the book.

Film versions

Adapted for television in the United Kingdom in 1996.
