Nice quiz. Mr. Satterthwaite should be in too.

Mr. Harley Quin? You've got to be kidding me. Satterthwaite is actually in bore books/stories than Harley Quin is, so he should definitely be in. Madeleine De Sara/Maggie Sayers for a bonus! Also Claude whats-his-name.

Yes, I see what you mean about Mr. Quin. I included him because he's actually the title character of a few books, but I'll cut him out.

Quin should have been in there. He was one of Agatha's favorite characters (from her biography). Maybe Satterthwaite should be also, but he was often the method to introduce Quin.
