Travel preparation is almost as satisfying as the travel itself. I rejoice looking for maps, travelling guides, web pages...One of my favourite quests is to find out which well-known author was born there or set their books in any of the places I'm visiting.
I would like to recommend you this book set England.
The island where the murder happens reminds me of Mount St. Michel very much:
"... So he built his house—a sturdy house too, as it needed to be, on the little windswept gull‐haunted promontory— cut off from land at each high tide."...
"The sturdy house was added to and embellished. A concrete causeway was laid down
from the mainland to the island. ‘Walks’ and ‘Nooks’ were cut and devised all round the
island."
In this article you can find Agatha Christie's novel settings. It has become a habit to buy one of her books when I visit one of them, that's how my collection started.
