About this event
An hour of museum detective work: how a piece of Syrian furniture in the V&A's collection connects to Agatha Christie, who spent years on archaeological digs in the Middle East with her second husband. Part of the free Lunchtime Lecture series, so there is nothing to book — turn up at one and take a seat.
