Katherine Corrigan

Katherine Ginger Corrigan, mostly simply known as Ginger is one of the characters of Agatha Christie's 1961 novel The Pale Horse.
== Biography ==
At first, Ginger seems like a background character in the story. However, at some point, Mark Easterbrook turns to her for help, who wants to investigate the strange deaths that the local police asked him about. Without thinking twice, Ginger agrees and offers him a plan. Mark once had a wife whom no one had ever seen. This wife once died in an accident, which, naturally, no one knows about. Ginger offers to impersonate this wife and suggests that Mark go to the local witches (who claim to be responsible for the deaths that the police asked Mark about) and say that he wants to kill his wife so that he can marry another girl. Soon after, Ginger mysteriously falls ill. Thanks to the tips of Ariadne Oliver (the one who constantly supplied Hercule Poirot with investigations), Mark notes that all the victims of these witches (including the still living Ginger) had hair loss, which means that the cause of their poor health was not natural diseases, but and thallium poisoning. Ginger and Mark's plan attracts the attention of the police and leads them to the culprit, who turns out to be local pharmacist Zachariah Osborne. He is arrested and Ginger recovers.
== Personality ==
Ginger can be called a sweet girl. She is a good friend of Mark Eastrebrook. She is also very smart, since she is the one who comes up with a plan on how to identify and expose the criminal (and he did not know what to do before). She can also be called brave, since she takes mortal risks to help Mark.
