Show Notes

How different is the work of a real-life private investigator to the work of Hercule Poirot? In this episode, host Rebecca Thandi Norman interviews her sister (!) Ashley Norman, who is a former private investigator. They discuss how Poirot's work is similar to her own, whether there are really "famous" detectives, and the plot of The A.B.C. Murders. This is our last episode of season 1. Season 2 will start in fall 2023, but keep an eye out for a few fun episodes in between seasons this summer. Thank you for listening to "Tea & Murder: An Agatha Christie Podcast!"
