Top 10 criminal duos in fiction

1. Evil Under the Sun by Agatha Christie (1941) There are a few murderous pairs flitting around in the Agatha Christie universe. Without giving too much away about this particular book, Poirot is on holiday in Devon, which means that someone in his orbit will die. I love Christie for many reasons but one of them is her elaborately planned murders, well displayed here. And the thing about elaborate plans is that they are easier to pull off if one has a partner.
