Über den Autor
Kate Gingold has long had a deep affection for Agatha Christie novels and started collecting them from garage sales in her teens. Now an empty-nester, Kate has a little more time to spend going down rabbit holes to figure out what Christie meant by some of her more puzzling references. The world today is very different from Christie's England in the 1920s. As a history buff, that's what fascinates Kate, and she has been writing about everyday life in decades past since 2006. In her "day job," Kate writes about and for digital marketing. When they aren't traveling, Kate lives, writes, and gardens in the Chicago suburbs with her husband.
