Spider’s Web by Agatha Christie is a play rather than a novel, first performed in 1954. The story centers on Clarissa, the wife of a British diplomat, who discovers a murder in her home while hosting a party. In a panic, she hides the body and creates a cover story, hoping to avoid scandal. However, as the police investigate, the situation becomes increasingly complicated, with more lies, deceptions, and hidden motives coming to light.
The play is a mix of comedy, suspense, and mystery, featuring clever twists and misunderstandings as Clarissa works to keep the truth hidden. It’s an intriguing and fast-paced drama, typical of Christie’s skill in creating tension and surprise.
