On December 4th, 1926 Agatha Christie disappeared for ten days, causing quite a storm in the press. Her car was found in a chalk pit. She was eventually found staying at a hotel in Harrogate, where she claimed to have suffered amnesia due to a nervous breakdown following the death of her mother and her husband's confessed infidelity. Opinions are still divided as to whether this was a publicity stunt or not. Agatha Christie died on January 12th, 1976 at age 85, taking her secrets about her mysterious disappearance to the grave.
