Кіріспе
Агата Кристидің детектив романы (1922)
The Secret Adversary is the second published detective fiction novel by British writer Agatha Christie, first published in January 1922 in the United Kingdom by The Bodley Head and in the United States by Dodd, Mead and Company later in that same year. The UK edition retailed at seven shillings and sixpence (7/6)
The critic for The New York Times Book Review (11 June 1922) was also impressed: "It is safe to assert that unless the reader peers into the last chapter or so of the tale, he will not know who this secret adversary is until the author chooses to reveal him." The review gave something of a backhanded compliment when it said that Christie "gives a sense of plausibility to the most preposterous situations and developments." Nevertheless it conceded thatMiss Christie has a clever prattling style that shifts easily into amusing dialogue and so aids the pleasure of the reader as he tears along with Tommy and Tuppence on the trail of the mysterious Mr Brown. Many of the situations are a bit moth eaten from frequent usage by other writers, but at that Miss Christie manages to invest them with a new sense of individuality that renders them rather absorbing. Robert Barnard described the novel as "The first and best (no extravagant compliment this) of the Tommy and Tuppence stories. It tells how the dauntless pair foils a plot to foment labour unrest and red revolution in Britain, masterminded by the man behind the Bolshevists. Good reactionary fun, if you're in that mood." Some additional blurbs regarding the book, and used by The Bodley Head for advertising subsequent print runs, are as follows:
"It's an excellent yarn and the reader will find it as impossible as we did to put it aside until the mystery has been fathomed." — Daily Chronicle
"We promise our readers an exciting story of adventure, full of hairbreadth escapes, and many disappointments if they try to guess the riddle before the author is ready to give them the clue. — An excellent story." — Saturday Review.

«Нью-Йорк Таймс Бук Ривью» журналының сыншысы (11 маусым 1922 ж.) да әсерлі болды: «Оқырман әңгіменің соңғы тарауларын қарамайынша, автор ашқанша құпия қарсыластың кім екенін білмейді деп айтуға болады». Мақалада Кристи «ең қисынсыз жағдайлар мен оқиғаларға да сенімділік сезімін сыйлайды» делінген. Дегенмен, сыншы Мисс Кристидің әдемі әуендеу стилі бар екенін мойындады, ол оңайлықпен қызықты диалогқа ауысады және оқырманның Томи мен Тэппенспен бірге құпия Мистер Браунның ізін қуу барысында ләззат алуына көмектеседі. Көптеген жағдайлар басқа авторлардың жиі пайдалануынан кейін аздап тозығы жеткен, бірақ Мисс Кристи оларды жаңа жекелік сезімімен қайта жаңғыртады, бұл оларды қызықты етеді. Роберт Барнард осы романды «Томи мен Тэппенс оқиғаларының алғашқысы және ең жақсысы (бұл асыра мақтау емес) деп сипаттады. Роман Ұлыбританияда еңбекшілер арасында наразылықты қоздыру және қызыл төңкеріс жасау жоспарын жоққа шығаруға батыл ерлі-зайыптылардың қатысқандығын баяндайды, бұл жоспарды большевиктердің артында тұрған адам жасаған. Егер сіз осындай көңіл-күйде болсаңыз, онда бұл керемет реакциялық ойын-сауық». Кітапқа қатысты қосымша жарнамалар, The Bodley Head баспасы кейіннен жаңа басылымдарды жарнамалау үшін қолданған:

Графикалық романның бейімделуі
"Сырлы қарсыласы" 2008 жылдың 20 мамырында ХарперКоллинс баспасынан Франсуа Ривьердің бейімдеуі және Франк Леклерктің суреттерімен графикалық роман ретінде жарық көрді. Бұл 2003 жылы Францияда Эммануэль Пруст баспасынан «Мистер Браун» деген атпен алғаш жарық көрген нұсқасынан аударылды.
Сахна
Агата Кристидің "Сері қарсыласы" романы 2015 жылы алғаш рет "Уотермилл" театрының қойылымы ретінде сахнаға қойылды, бұл қойылымды Сара Паншон мен Йоханн Хари жеті актерлік құрамға бейімдеді. Екі актілі пьеса жарнамада "шапшаң әрекетке, комедияға, жанды музыкаға және романтикаға толы" деп сипатталды. Жанды музыканы актерлер орындады. Тэппенс рөлін Эмеральд О’Ханрахан, Томми рөлін Гармон Рис сомдады. Қойылым 12 ақпаннан 21 наурызға дейін The Watermill Theatre, West Berkshire Playhouse театрында көрсетіліп, содан кейін 9 мамырға дейін гастрольдік сапарда болып, Роуз театрында аяқталды. 2016 жылдың 16 ақпанында Ұлы көлдер театры білім беру бағдарламасының аясында 70 минуттық сахналық бейімделуді ұсынды.

Құрлық жамылғысының жарлығы
Алғашқы басылымның күпіршігінде арнайы жазылған тұңғыш сөз болған жоқ. Оның орнына, ол "Стайлдағы құпия оқиға" кітабының күпіршігінде (бұрынғы роман туралы пікірлер артқы жағында) пайда болған мәтінді қайталады. Кейінгі басылымдарда "Пуаро тергейді" кітабының соңғы бетінде алғаш жарияланған тұңғыш сөздер қолданылды.
