This week, we're off to the deceptively cozy village of St. Mary Mead, where gossip flows freely and murder is just around the hedgerow. Join us as Miss Marple makes her unforgettable debut in The Murder at the Vicarage—knitting needles in hand and sharper than ever.My guest this week is author Kemper Donovan. Kemper began his writing career while still working as a manager, eventually publishing his debut novel, The Decent Proposal, after a lengthy journey to publication. Around the same time, he co-created the podcast All About Agatha with his friend Catherine Brobeck, celebrating the work of Agatha Christie. Following Catherine's passing in 2021, Kemper has continued the podcast on his own, and his passion for Christie's mysteries led him to create his own Ghostwriter mystery series including books The Busy Body and Loose Lips, now published by Kensington Books. He lives with his husband and their two daughters, and when not writing or podcasting, he enjoys running and making valiant attempts at playing the violin.Our drink this week is Miss Marples Cherrry Blossom from the book Agatha Whiskey by Colleen Mullany in which Kemper wrote the forward!MISS MARPLE'S CHERRY BLOSSOM Serves 2Miss Jane Marple's character is based loosely on Agatha's grandmother and her friends, and has appeared in twelve novels and twenty short stories. She makes her own cherry brandy from her garden, claiming that a bit of brandy helps ease one's nerves.

We kicked off the episode with a bit of weather banter, lamenting the lingering cold despite the arrival of spring. This lighthearted opening tied directly into our episode's focus on "tricks" as we wrapped up our literary podcast April's “Tricksters” theme. We reflected on the heavier topics from previous episodes, like the intense themes in Shutter Island, and decided to end the month on a lighter, playful note with a game.As always, we reminded listeners about the related content available on our website, Fully-Booked.ca, including recent articles like the intriguing investigation into how a book with only 444 ratings managed to top Amazon's bestseller list.Explaining the Game: “Trick Each Other Into Reading It”To close out the theme of tricks and foolery, we introduced a game where we each selected a handful of books. The goal was to describe these books vaguely enough to spark interest without revealing the title. The twist? If one of us successfully "enticed "tricked" the other into saying they'd read the book, that person would have to actually read it before the end of the year.The rules were:Describe the book's plot enticingly but vaguely.The other host guesses if they'd want to read it.Only after their decision is the book's identity revealed.If one of us is “tricked,” we're committing to reading the book.Play along with us and try to guess on your own! To reveal the book name, click on the arrow beside "Book reveal".The Game: Guess the Book and Decide to ReadRound 1Arthur: MeaghanDescribes: A brutal coming-of-age story set in a savage wasteland. Lone warrior fights terrifying beasts and deadly enemies to claim leadership. Gladiator vibes, betrayal, survival against the odds.Meaghan's Guess/Reaction: Doesn't sound appealing due to gladiator associations. Declines to read.Book revealRhino: The Rise of a Warrior by Nicholas Sansbury Smith.Round 2Host: MeaghanDescribes: A doctor and a circus performer (who jumps through flaming hoops) team up.

Says yes to reading.Book revealSyphon Sparrow by Brynn Weaver (third in the Ruinous Love trilogy). Dark romance twist - Arthur is now on the hook for reading the whole series.Round 3Host: ArthurDescribes: Locked-room murder mystery at a strange outpost where the suspects aren't human. Amateur sleuth repeatedly finds themselves surrounded by death. Witty, quirky, Miss Marple in space energy.Meaghan's Guess/Reaction: Sounds fun, suspects it's Station Eternity - and guesses correctly.Book revealStation Eternity by Mur Lafferty.Round 4Host: MeaghanDescribes: Narrated by a child. "The house isn't haunted—the family is." Closets are unsafe spaces. Nonlinear storytelling reflecting a child's mind.Arthur's Guess/Reaction: Interested; thinks it's a book they've talked about but guesses incorrectly.Book revealIncidents Around the House by Josh Malerman. Horror novel from the author of Bird Box.Round 5Host: ArthurDescribes: An Orphan child taken to a fortress where others are trained in secret knowledge. Creatures, riddles, betrayal, and danger beneath the surface.Meaghan's Guess/Reaction: Might be interested, but unsure what the book is.Book revealIt's Harry Potter. Trick round—no reread required!Round 6Host: MeaghanDescribes: Inspired by Lizzie Borden, set in a Maine mansion where a decades-old murder took place. Current-day caretaker tries to solve the mystery with a mute woman as the key witness.Arthur's Guess/Reaction: Sounds intriguing; hesitant but interested.Book revealThe Only One Left by Riley SagerRound 7Host: ArthurDescribes: Haunted luxury cruiser, salvage crew finds dead passengers who aren't at rest. Ghosts, creepy visions, something watching from the shadows.Meaghan's Guess/Reaction: Initially confused it with Six Wakes or Paradise One, but is interested.Book revealDead Silence by S.A. Barnes.Round 8Host: MeaghanDescribes: Siblings return to childhood home after parents' death, tensions rise. The trauma isn't what you expect—it's the house. Features the creepiest puppet ever.Arthur's Guess/Reaction: Intrigued, especially by the horror elements. Says yes.Book revealHow to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix.Round 9Host: ArthurDescribes: A Deadly puzzle in an ancient fortress. Necromancers, sword fighters, skeletons, betrayal. Gothic horror meets dark fantasy.Meaghan's Guess/Reaction: Sounds compelling; admits he might read it.Book revealGideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir.Round 10Host: MeaghanDescribes: Surprise murder at a B&B run by a family of witches, each with distinct powers. Cozy mystery that also tackles grief, loss, and healing.Arthur's Guess/Reaction: Hesitant but interested.Book revealIn the Company of Witches by Arleigh Wallace.Closing Thoughts and Episode Wrap-UpWe concluded the game, reflecting on how successful each of us had been at tricking the other. The result was a tie, with each of us winding up with about two or three books we're now committed to reading. Arthur, in particular, will be tackling Butcher and Blackbird - a fact Meaghan was especially excited about.Finally, we previewed what's coming next month: a more flexible, experimental approach to May's episodes. We encouraged listeners to explore the podcast backlog and check out all the additional content on our site.

¡Atención, amantes del misterio! 🕵️‍♀️ 🔎 Agatha Christie ha tenido admiradores y detractores entre escritores y críticos. Se le acusa de conservadurismo y de exaltación patriótica de la superioridad británica. Pero se reconoce también su habilidad para la recreación de ambientes rurales y urbanos de la primera mitad del siglo XX de la isla inglesa, su oído para el diálogo, la verosimilitud de las motivaciones psicológicas de sus asesinos, e incluso su radical escepticismo respecto de la naturaleza humana: cualquiera puede ser un asesino, hasta la más apacible dama de un cuidado jardín de rosas de Kent. En Muerte en la vicaría, Agatha Christie nos presenta a su icónica detective, Miss Marple, en la primera novela donde se presentó a Miss Marple en acción, publicada en 1930, esta historia nos transporta a St. Mary Mead, un pueblo donde el Coronel Protheroe, el hombre más odiado por todos, aparece muerto en su estudio. Su actitud prepotente ha dejado una estela de enemigos, y ahora son muchos los que podrían ser responsables de su asesinato. ¿Te atreves a descubrir al culpable junto a Miss Marple?

Giuseppe Sorgi"Mariano di Gesù al Princess Hotel"Salani Editorewww.salani.itAccompagnare i suoi genitori a Edimburgo, per festeggiare le loro nozze d'oro, non è esattamente ciò che Jole chiamerebbe una vacanza. Semmai, un supplizio. Sua madre ha un carattere complicato, e suo padre da sempre asseconda la moglie in tutto. Benché Jole sia pronta al peggio quando, dopo un volo turbolento, mette piedenell'elegante hall del Princess Hotel, non può immaginare quali imprevisti le abbia riservato il soggiorno scozzese. Poche ore più tardi, infatti, in quell'albergo avverrà una serie di decessi. Cosa unisce quelle morti? Possibile che si tratti di una fatale coincidenza, come qualcuno vorrebbe far credere? Non spetta certo a lei indagare, ma un altro ospite italiano dell'albergo, Mariano Di Gesù, straripante e ficcanaso come un incrocio tra Poirot, Miss Marple e la signora Fletcher, si è messo in testa di risolvere il caso e di coinvolgere la donna, trascinandola con sé in una serie di guai, pericoli e situazioni surreali. Portando dalla sua esperienza teatrale una formidabile gestione delle voci e dei tempi comici, Giuseppe Sorgi ha creato un giallo originalissimo e fulminante, nel quale l'imprevisto, dispettoso com'è, accade con puntualità diabolica.Giuseppe Sorgi, autore, regista e attore teatrale, è nato a Palermo e vive a Roma. Ha scritto anche per la tv.Nel 2016 per Salani ha pubblicato Io Vergine, tu Pesci?, da cui è tratto l'omonimo spettacolo che con grande successo è tuttora in tour. Questo è il suo primo romanzo.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

¡Atención, amantes del misterio! 🕵️‍♀️ 🔎 Agatha Christie ha tenido admiradores y detractores entre escritores y críticos. Se le acusa de conservadurismo y de exaltación patriótica de la superioridad británica. Pero se reconoce también su habilidad para la recreación de ambientes rurales y urbanos de la primera mitad del siglo XX de la isla inglesa, su oído para el diálogo, la verosimilitud de las motivaciones psicológicas de sus asesinos, e incluso su radical escepticismo respecto de la naturaleza humana: cualquiera puede ser un asesino, hasta la más apacible dama de un cuidado jardín de rosas de Kent. En Muerte en la vicaría, Agatha Christie nos presenta a su icónica detective, Miss Marple, en la primera novela donde se presentó a Miss Marple en acción, publicada en 1930, esta historia nos transporta a St. Mary Mead, un pueblo donde el Coronel Protheroe, el hombre más odiado por todos, aparece muerto en su estudio. Su actitud prepotente ha dejado una estela de enemigos, y ahora son muchos los que podrían ser responsables de su asesinato. ¿Te atreves a descubrir al culpable junto a Miss Marple? Existe la adaptación cinematográfica dirigida por Charles Palmer en 2004, con un guion de Stephen Churchett, basada en esta intrigante novela de Agatha Christie. ¡Sigue el rastro de pistas y acompáñanos en esta aventura de suspense y misterio!🔍 Te comparto un mapa para que comiences a explorar el mundo de Miss Marple en la comunidad de este podcast y en nuestro canal de Telegram. 🔎 🎶Música epidemic sound licencia premium: Hyde Park Promenade - Sinfonietta Cinemática. 🎵Inicio: Canción interpretada por Tom Kinniburgh a partir de un disco de goma laca de 78 rpm grabado alrededor de 1930.

This week on Crime Wave: Erik S. Meyers talks about the second outing in his Sally Witherspoon mystery series—Murder on the Mississippi. Reeling after discovering who murdered her best friend, Sally books a river cruise down the Mississippi to put that terrible time behind her and relax. Unfortunately, relaxation is not to be as she sleuths to get to the bottom of a mysterious death that occurs on board. Move over, Miss Marple! Sally Witherspoon is determined to solve it. #podcast #author #interview #authors #CrimeWavePodcast #authorsontheair #podcast #podcaster #authors #authorsofig #authorsofinstagram #authorinterview #writingcommunity #suspensebooks #authorssupportingauthors #thrillerbooks #suspense #wip #writers#writersinspiration #bookrecommendations #bookaddict #bookaddicted #bookaddiction #bibliophile #read #amreading #lovetoread #BonnarSpring #BonnarSpringBooks #bookouture #thrillers #ErikSMeyers #MurderontheMississippi

This week, Sally has been reflecting on her ‘orphan power', a phrase once applied to her by Will Self, and her relationship with orphaned literary characters such as Jane Eyre. Listen for a meditation on isolation, belonging, and the communities that art can provide. The extracts performed here involving Jane Eyre and Miss Marple are from Sally's first coming of age novel, Girl with Dove (William Collins, 2018). The wonderful piano music in the opening section is 'Rain', by Paul Sebastian. This episode was partially inspired by Sally being asked to speak at a symposium on ‘The Impact of Lived Experience on Care Associated Research by Care Experienced Researchers', convened by Dr Annie Skinner, a Visiting Research Fellow at Oxford Brookes University. More information on Dr Skinner's work can be found here. This episode was edited and produced by James Bowen. Special thanks to Andrew Smith, Violet Henderson, Kris Dyer, and Maeve Magnus.

312 - There's a Spanish galleon wrecked off the coast of Cornwall, but was it ever brimming with gold bullion? Thanks to the most widely published author of all time, we once again solve the mystery with Miss Marple.

The 2:14 PM time of birth I use here for mystery writer Agatha Christie is new information. When I wrote about her in Yesterday's Sky in early 2008, I used her then-current birth time of 4:00 AM, which I found on seemingly good authority. Later, it emerged that "a midwife named Mrs. Shelton-Price who, according to her bill, had charged one crown and two shillings to deliver Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller at 2:14 pm on Monday afternoon, September 15." This new time of birth now gives Agatha Christie's chart a Rodden Rating of AA—and a very different look. What follows is a rewrite of my previous analysis. Consider it a replacement for chapter fifteen for all editions and printings of Yesterday's Sky starting from 2008 and running into the third quarter of 2024. In all new printings, this chapter will replace the previous incorrect one. As ever, astrology's Achilles' Heel is bad birth information. With someone you know, you can often sense that something is off in the chart. With strangers, you're much more vulnerable. Four billion copies of her books are in print. She is often described as the best-selling author in history. Her play, The Mousetrap, is the longest running one in the world, having opened in London on November 25, 1952 and still going strong as of this writing.  But it is for her murder mysteries that Agatha Christie is best known. Her work practically defined the genre. Her vain Belgian detective, Hercule Poirot, with his waxed mustache and his brilliant deductions humanized the infallible “Sherlock Holmes” archetype. Poirot is the only fictional character ever to be given an obituary in The New York Times, after Christie killed him off in her 1975 novel, Curtain. That's some indication of the popularity of her work. Her delightful Miss Marple, who was at least as brilliant as Hercule Poirot and a lot more charming, made it safe for older, middle-class ladies on both sides of the Atlantic to have a formidable gleam of mischief in their eyes, along with garnering some respect for their well-tempered intelligence and insight. Anyone can say “don't underestimate me.” Miss Marple's irrefutable wisdom made that honorable sentiment irrefutable. Listen In...

Fictional detectives are some of the most beloved characters in print and on-screen. It's easy to relate to someone with an overblown sense of justice and a need to set the world right (or as right as it can be). There are nosy neighbors like Nancy Drew and Miss Marple with no real credentials whatsoever and police detectives — Hello, Harry Bosch! Ta, Inspector Lynley! — with entire departments behind them. Relentless journalists, dogged medical examiners, resourceful bounty hunters (We see you, Stefanie Plum!), and, perhaps, the most endearing detectives of them all: private eyes. This show is all about the gumshoes who work outside the pesky laws of search warrants and chain of evidence. Who maybe toil in an office with a frosted glass door and a dame with moxie tapping away at a typewriter — or perhaps the dame with moxie is the detective. This installment celebrates independent investigators who distract and delight in their search for the truth. In this episode, we meet the world's first PI and first American lady detective, delve into Poe scholarship and the problem with his ‘The Murders in the Rue Morgue,' and discuss one of the kindest mystery authors. Then we recommend five books we love that put us in the thick of dangerous inquiries, including the escapades of a thoroughly modern detective agency, an urban mystery with a bookish PI, a British caper with an unforgettable hero, a how-to for wannabe detectives, and a noir-tinged fantasy novel about a reluctant sleuth. Here are the books about Detective Agencies we recommend on the show: The Verifiers by Jane Pek IQ by Joe Ide Odds Against by Dick Francis The Complete Idiot's Guide to Private Investigating by Steven Kerry Brown The Manual of Detection by Jedediah Berry For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

Chris Brookmyre joins Simon and Matt to chat about his latest novel. You may have heard Mark Billingham on one of our previous Q&A episodes rave about The Cracked Mirror? Well, he did such a good job - we read it, and loved it too! So we had to have Chris on! The idea for the book came from a discussion with his Editor, who was looking for a meta crime novel. Chris has never been one to shy away from a challenge, and loves to mix up genres, so he came up with an elevator pitch "What would happen if Miss Marple had to work with Harry Bosch?" What we have is The Cracked Mirror - where cosy crime meets the grittier end of the scale. (more on the book below) As well as his new novel, Chris discusses his gig at Glastonbury, his writing processes and how and why the crime writing community is so supportive. THE CRACKED MIRROR You know Penny Coyne. The little old lady who has solved multiple murders in her otherwise sleepy village, despite bumbling local police. A razor-sharp mind in a twinset and tweed. You know Johnny Hawke. Hard-bitten LAPD homicide detective. Always in trouble with his captain, always losing partners, but always battling for the truth, whatever it takes. Against all the odds, against the usual story, their worlds are about to collide. It starts with a dead writer and a mysterious wedding invitation.

299 - Who -- or WHAT -- killed Sir Richard Haydon? Tuck in for the conclusion of this Miss Marple mystery.

Welcome to our podcast where we discuss and deliberate over memoirs and biographies found in thrift shops. This is a great way to do things as we are not choosing who to read about. We may not be fans of the person, we may never have heard of the person and we never know who we are going to find next...There are only 2 rules to this podcast. The book has to be found in a thrift shop and we are not allowed to talk about the book until we press record, which is sometimes agonising.We have lots of episodes coming up so if you find yourself enjoying our podcast, please be sure to subscribe to be among the first to hear about each episode.Support the Show.
