A Caribbean Mystery by Agatha Christie - Part Three
We discuss chapters 18-25 of Agatha Christie's 10th Miss Marple Novel, A Caribbean Mystery. The resort is plunged into open chaos as a third murder takes place and it's up to the unlikely duo of Miss Marple and the deposed Mr Rafiel to solve everything at the last minute and set the record straight. Flex and Herds debate the implications of a medical murder mystery as Nemesis takes the stage...
We're also joined by Michael Brissenden again to discuss his recent novel release 'Smoke' and to talk about how murder mystery goes hand in hand with voicing the unvoiced. A lesson that Agatha Christie adapters have taken to heart... but more on that next week!
Thank you to Affirm Press for providing copies of Smoke, and arranging our time with Michael Brissenden.
