Publisher Description
Christie's superb stand-alone mystery, Passenger to Frankfurt, is a true masterwork of surprise and suspense, as a diplomat comes to the aid of a terrified woman in an airport, only to find that his identity has been stolen and his life is suddenly in serious jeopardy.
Sir Stafford Nye's flight home from Malaya takes an unprecedented twist when a young woman confides in him that someone is trying to kill her. In a moment of weakness, he agrees to lend her his passport. Unwittingly, the diplomat has put his own life on the line.
When he meets the mystery woman again, she is a different person, and he finds himself drawn into a battle against an invisible—and altogether more dangerous—enemy. . . .

"This book is classical Agatha Christie. It is about two main people mixed up in a world-wide uprising. It is very intriguing, because the author throws in fictional characters who are trying to resurrect Hitler's idea of an Aryan nation through youth all over the world. "

Passenger to Frankfurt Listener Reviews

" was boring and long story, I read it but I didn't like it "

" Probably one of the worst Agatha Christie's I have ever read. It wasn't exciting, the characters were dull, there were pedantic rants about politics.......No thank you! "

" What a disappointment! The book starts out in a promising way but once the story develops, it is sooo boring. This kind of espionage/suspense is clearly not Christie's best area. Had to force myself to finish! "
— Tiina, 5/11/2011 -
" Not at all in the league of other A.C Mysteries... dissappointing for me! "
— Debdatta, 5/10/2011 -
" This is the worst Agatha Christie novel ever written. I only completed it because I am reading every novel written by her or I would have never finished it. The novel is a conspiracy thriller that's not thrilling and whose conspiracy makes absolutely no sense. Sadly, this novel is a complete mess. "
— Chavonne, 5/4/2011 -
" This is my least favorite Christie. I found it garbled and confusing with no clear plot. This was a reread for me and I didn't find that it got any less confusing with multiple readings. Would not read again and would not recommend. "
— Katherine, 1/30/2011 -
" This was not the book I assumed it would be. There were political rants and lots of important men having important meetings. The diplomat seemed like a jerk. I just wanted someone to commit a murder and then someone else to solve it. "
— Joanna, 1/10/2011 -
" It's more political novel than the usual agatha's style.. I didn't like it that much "
