Curated at Juniper Custom in Boulder, Colorado

Agatha Christie is, by every measure, the most popular mystery writer who has ever lived. Her novels have never been out of print. Her characters — Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, the endlessly surprising casts of suspects gathered in country houses, aboard trains and along the Nile — have become part of the permanent furniture of the literary imagination, and her books are among the collections our clients request most often.

It is not hard to understand why. A shelf of Agatha Christie, beautifully curated and dressed in unified jacket design, is one of the most satisfying things a library can hold.

Every collection is built around your preferences, and custom jacket design is available in any direction you choose. You are never limited to the examples shown on this page.

Our studio often holds Agatha Christie editions ready to work with, which can shorten the lead time for Christie projects considerably.

The unjacketed editions shown are the same books used in the jacketed collections pictured.

The Process

Begin by clicking "Get Started with a Deposit" and proceeding to checkout. Within 2 business days, our team will reach out to discuss the number of volumes you would like, your design preferences, and whether you would like custom jackets or prefer the books presented without. If you add custom jackets, a designer will develop initial concepts — typically within 1–2 weeks. You will then receive a comprehensive proposal and design concept outlining the full scope, cost, and timeline. If you choose to proceed, an invoice for the balance is sent before books are acquired and design is finalized. Your deposit is deducted in full from the total project estimate.

Full custom projects vary in cost and lead time depending on scope and title selection.

The deposit is non-refundable, as it covers the labor involved in researching your books and preparing design concepts and proposals.

FAQs

Which Agatha Christie titles can be included in a custom collection?
Our studio collection of Christie editions spans her Hercule Poirot novels, Miss Marple mysteries, standalone thrillers and short story collections, and it changes over time. Please reach out, and we will gladly share our current collection with you. Once your deposit is received, our team will work with you to select the titles that belong in your collection. If a specific title you love is not currently in stock, we will research additional sourcing options before your proposal is finalized.

Can I commission a complete Agatha Christie collection, or just a selection of favorites?
Both, and everything in between. Some clients prefer a focused set of eight or ten of Christie's most celebrated titles, while others wish for the most comprehensive collection we can build. Tell us what you are imagining, and we will tell you exactly what is possible.

How might a Christie collection be organized?
Many collections follow her great detectives. A Poirot shelf might begin with The Mysterious Affair at Styles, her first novel, and a Marple shelf with The Murder at the Vicarage. Others gather her most celebrated puzzles, such as Murder on the Orient Express and And Then There Were None, or trace her career in order of publication. Our curators will help you find the shape that suits the reader.
