Enthusiasts of mystery fiction will have the chance to play detective when some of Agatha Christie's classic books are brought to interactive life in computer games.
Christie's grandson, Matthew Prichard, said Sunday that he has granted permission for his grandmother's work to be adapted for CD-ROM computer games.
Five computer games based on the world-famous author's novels will be developed by Chorion, an intellectual property group that already looks after Christie's works, over the next six years.
