Personal Quote:
An archaelogist is the best husband a women can have. The older she gets the more interested he is in her. See more »Trivia:
Her influence even extended to science fiction and her murder mysteries influenced three stories from the television series Doctor Who (1963): Doctor Who: The Robots of Death: Part One (1977), Doctor Who: Black Orchid: Part One (1982) and Doctor Who: The Trial of a Time Lord: Part Nine (1986). She was later portrayed on screen in the story Doctor Who: The Unicorn and the Wasp (2008). See more »Trademark:
All her books and short stories feature some kind of plot twist or surprising ending with the least expected person being the bad guy.Nickname:
