On today's episode, we interviewed author Ann Claire about her book Dead and Gondola(Bantam Books 11/22). It is the first in her Christie Bookshop Mystery series..Ellie Christie is thrilled to begin a new chapter. She's recently returned to her tiny Coloradohometown to run her family's historic bookshop with her elder sister, Meg, and their beloved cat,Agatha. Perched in a Swiss-style hamlet accessible by ski gondola and a twisty mountain road,the Book Chalet is a famed bibliophile destination known for its maze of shelves and relaxingreading lounge. At least, until trouble blows in with a wintry whiteout. A man is found dead onthe gondola, and a rockslide throws the town into lockdown—no one in, no one out.The victim was a mysterious stranger who'd visited the bookshop. At the time, his only blundershad been disrupting a book club and leaving behind a first-edition Agatha Christie novel, writtenunder a pseudonym. However, once revealed, the man's identity shocks the town. Motives andsecrets swirl like the snow, but when the police narrow in on the sisters' close friends, theChristies have to act.Although the only Agatha in their family tree is their cat, Ellie and Meg know a lot aboutmysteries and realize they must summon their inner Miss Marple to trek through a blizzard ofclues before the killer turns the page to their final chapter.Ann Claire earned degrees in geography, which took her across the world. Now Claire lives withher geographer husband in Colorado, where the mountains beckon from their kitchen windows.When she's not writing, you can find her hiking, gardening, herding housecats, and enjoying agood mystery, especially one by Agatha Christie.

Damn, that was fun! I don't know about you, but I find the symbolism of a Black woman destroying one of the most famous icons of beauty in the world (read — a specific type of beauty) in order to crumble the ill-gotten empire of a con-artist White man who is only wealthy and considered legendary because he stole ideas and credit from others (most notably from said Black woman) and surrounded himself with “yes men” pretty fucking disruptive. Not only that, but in this interview with Janelle Monáe, she pointed out that the symbolism goes even further. Cassandra and Helen, the names of the twins she plays in the movie, are referencing the sisters of the same names in Greek mythology. Despite being familiar with their stories (more so Cassandra's than Helen's) I didn't catch the reference, but it goes to show that there are near countless fun layers of the film to peel back. Naturally, Helen of Troy was considered one of the most beautiful women in the world, and she was responsible for burning Troy to the ground. Written and directed by Rian Johnson, Glass Onion is the latest installment of the Knives Out (or “A Benoit Blanc Mystery”) series. And it's a complex — yet deliberately deceptively simple and fun — murder mystery that puts the social media age on trial (I mean, who hasn't heard of at least one Birdie [Kate Hudson]?). Simple, much like the “murder mystery” set up in the beginning, because it's easy to see how Miles (played perfectly by Edward Norton) would be the vainglorious villain. But complex, because it could have turned out a number of ways. In fact, it just as easily could have ended with each one of them having a hand in Cass's (Andi's) physical death, just as they did her social and financial “death”. As mentioned and shown in the movie, the mystery is a glass onion itself — seemingly complex with many layers, but the center is in plain sight. There's an interesting thing that happens — in watching movies and in life. Observing our reactions, questioning our perceptions. When Miles gives the drink to Duke (Dave Bautista) the first time, I noticed. And I clocked the fact that he switched it in his retelling. But — even though I initially thought that he deliberately poisoned his friend — I made excuses for Miles. Maybe he misremembered. Maybe he told it differently because he didn't want to be blamed, but he didn't do it intentionally. And “so it goes”. And while that's just a natural part of trying to figure out a mystery, isn't that kind of the point? Earlier in the movie, Lionel (Leslie Odom Jr.) explains to shareholders that while a lot of what Miles does is insane garbage, he is given the benefit of the doubt because of one idea he presented that was bankable. That is what those like him live on. Enough to make the audience doubt what is right in front of their faces — Miles was the one with the most to lose if Cass revealed that she had the real napkin all along. It's as clear as day when she (really, Helen disguised as Cass) arrives on the island and the blood drains from Miles's face. Like the first Knives Out, the cast is simply immaculate. The performances are seamless and believable, no matter how outlandish the characters. They could have been plucked from any news story from the past few years about said types of people. And Daniel Craig's take on the detective has given us a new, engaging icon in Benoit Blanc, in the style of Jessica Fletcher (R.I.P. the great Angela Lansbury, making an appearance in the film in one of her last roles), Columbo, Monk, Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple and others. (As a side-note, I watched this movie a second time with my SO, and he was the one who caught that Hugh Grant's character and Benoit are married. I thought Hugh was his butler or assistant, like a Batman and Alfred situation!) And, of course, Janelle Monáe playing as two (or rather three) characters was likely one of her most intricate film performances thus far. #KnivesOut --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nancygandcorryg/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/nancygandcorryg/support

Deckardrottningen Agatha Christie fortsätter att fängsla världen med sina kluriga mordgåtor och mysterier, som hennes huvudpersoner Hercule Poirot och miss Marple alltid lyckas lösa. Med karaktärer som den omsorgsfullt klädde Hercule Poirot och den mer blygsamma Miss Marple fångade Agatha Christie en bred skara läsare. Hennes böcker beräknas ha sålt i ungefär två miljarder exemplar. Det är bara Bibeln och Shakespeare som slår de siffrorna. Men trots, eller kanske på grund av, sina stora kommersiella framgångar avfärdades Agatha Christie ofta av kritiker som en lättviktare i deckargenren. Men det går inte att förneka att hennes romaner varit minst sagt trendsättande.I veckans Stil tittar vi närmare på den så kallade mysdeckaren och frågar oss hur man överlever på den brittiska landsbygden, där det, i alla fall i fiktionens värld, tycks gömma sig en mördare runt varje husknut. Vi djupdyker även in i det som vissa menar är det mest oförutsägbara om Agatha Christie, att hon räknas som något av en pionjär inom surfing. Dessutom träffar vi deckarförfattaren Marie Bengts som är en stor beundrare av Agatha Christie. Hennes egen amatördetektiv Hannah Lönn är en aspirerande modeskapare som ofta hamnar mitt i en mordgåta.Veckans gäst är Lotta Olsson, journalist och deckarkritiker i Dagens Nyheter.Programmet är en repris från 1 oktober 2021.

Krimi · Las Vegas: Eine Tote neben einer Schrotflinte, zwei Polizisten und die gewitzte Lehrerin Miss Finch. Im Bungalow deuten zwei Gläser und eine Zigarre auf Herrenbesuch hin. Ein Mordfall? Miss Finch beginnt parallel zur Polizei mit eigenen Ermittlungen. // Mit Edith Heerdegen, Herbert Bötticher, Georg Kostya, Marlies Schönau u.a. / Bearbeitung und Regie: Edmund Steinberger / BR 1968

What do Miss Marple, Sherlock Holmes, and Winnie the Pooh have in common? They've all entered the public domain (at least to some extent). The original Mickey Mouse will join them next year. But that's not the end of the story, public domain and copyright law can be complex. Our hosts walk you through the basics of public domain law and how the soon-to-be released slasher film Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey depicts the once gentle and lovable bear. Why isn't Disney doing anything about it?

Agatha Christie's The Body in the Library achieves a place amongst the top ten this year, bringing us the second full novel appearance of her famous detective the humble yet deadly Miss Marple. The story revolves around the titular Body in the titular library, a woman found dead in the morning by an unsuspecting household of seeming no relation to the poor girl. As this is a Christie murder mystery we are primed to suspect an elaborate connection, a plot which ties all things together, one which makes all the chess pieces line up like ducks for Mr. Bantry to shoot.

'Marple: Twelve New Stories' is a brand-new collection of original tales penned by some of the world's bestselling female writers. Each story takes inspiration from Agatha Christie's classic originals to feature a new mystery for Miss Marple to solve. As ever, she knows more than she appears to. Acclaimed authors Kate Mosse and Lucy Foley and sought-after bibliotherapist Ella Berthoud joined Damian Barr for a Special Salon at the British Library to celebrate the return of Marple and to discuss her legendary creator Agatha Christie. Enjoy this special episode packed with exclusive readings and expert insights, celebrating the incomparable, enigmatic spirt of Jane Marple and her legendary creator! This event was held at the historic British Library, the national library of the UK, with its unparalleled archive of books, manuscripts, maps, newspapers, sounds and websites. All of Christie's first editions are held there and their spirit suffused the evening! Podcast produced and edited by Megan Bay Dorman Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Can psychics help solve cases? What do we think about the US justice system and the death penalty (clue: we are so left-wing we are about to fall off the end)? Why were Miss Marple and Jessica Fletcher never suspected of murder, even though they were always just there when they happened? Can little old ladies be serial killers? And how was a psychic involved in Ian Huntley's murder of Jessica Chapman and Holly Wells? Join us as we take a look at some cases where psychics have known things about investigations that they can't possibly have known. Did it help catch the criminals?

Agatha Christie's clever and charming mystery novels have been loved by generations of readers, spawning PBS Mystery icons like Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. Jack and Kate discuss Christie's 1935 novel Three Act Tragedy, which chronicles a series of cocktail party poisonings among Britain's upper crust that draws the attention of quirky Belgian investigator Hercule Poirot. Is it rude to turn down a party invitation that might lead to your untimely demise? Is there room for a meet-cute while a multiple murderer is on the loose? Did the butler, in fact, do it? All these questions and more will be explored in this episode of the podcast.

Agatha Christie peut se targuer du titre de l'écrivain ayant vendu le plus de livres. Elle en aurait écoulé environ deux milliards dans le monde. Cet immense succès, la reine du crime le doit en partie à ses personnages. Miss Marple bien sûr, cette vieille fille pittoresque, qui mène toujours ses enquêtes en se référant à son petit village de la campagne anglaise. Mais surtout Hercule Poirot, sans doute le plus célèbre détective sorti de l'imagination d'un écrivain. Le détective belge paraît en effet dans pas moins de 33 romans et plus cde 50 nouvelles. Ce petit homme méticuleux et toujours tiré à quatre épingle fait marcher "ses petites cellules grises" et découvre l'assassin, à la fin du roman, en réunissant tous les protagonistes de l'histoire. Agatha Christie ne manquait jamais de dire toute l'affection qu'elle avait pour le personnage favori de ses nombreux lecteurs. Mais la dame cachait bien son jeu. En effet, son petit-fils révèle aujourd'hui qu'elle avait fini par prendre en grippe le détective belge. En effet, elle avait fait le tour d'un personnage qu'elle jugeait désormais encombrant. Au lieu de passer son temps à raconter les aventures d'Hercule Poirot, elle aurait voulu écrire d'autres histoires, où il n'aurait pas eu sa place. Elle aurait donc bien aimé lui consacrer un dernier roman, à la fin duquel il serait mort. Mais, avertis de ce projet, ses éditeurs se seraient récriés. Si elle tuait Hercule Poirot, ses lecteurs ne le lui pardonneraient pas. Et ses livres se vendraient forcément moins bien. L'écrivain le plus lu de son siècle dut donc prendre son mal en patience. Elle dut attendre 1975, un an avant sa propre mort, pour se débarrasser du détective belge. En effet, dans "Poirot quitte la scène", le détective est amené à tuer le responsable des crimes qui ponctuent le livre. Pour se punir de cette action, il se laisse lui-même mourir. Si l'on excepte les ouvrages parus après la mort de la romancière, cette ultime aventure de Poirot est l'avant-dernier livre d'Agatha Christie. Learn more about your ad choices.

You have probably heard someone say that God works in mysterious ways. That’s true enough, and sometimes the mystery doesn’t become clear until the story has completely played out. But that’s just like any good Agatha Christie mystery. Hercule Poirot or Miss Marple always got everyone together to explain the mystery and expose the murderer. But that little meeting at the end of the story is a very uncomfortable affair for the guilty.So it must have been for the brothers of Joseph. Joseph’s brothers, all heirs of a wealthy and powerful dynasty are jealous of him and plot to murder him, but instead sell him into slavery. After a time in prison, Joseph rises to great power in Egypt and rescues the whole nation and region from a time of famine.The famine drives the guilty brothers into Egypt for food. Joseph recognizes them but they don’t recognize him. So Joseph plays a deep game to get the whole family into Egypt, and allows the brothers’ own fear and guilt to grow as he invites them to dine in his own home. Finally, in Genesis 45, he reveals himself to his brothers—and part of the plan of God is revealed to us.

Today, I'm joined by a legend of stage and screen. Britain's naughtiest national treasure. It's the award-winning actress, Miriam Margolyes. Miriam's movie roles have included the BAFTA award-winning Mrs Mingott in Martin Scorsese's ‘The Age of Innocence' and of course Professor Sprout in the Harry Potter films. She's appeared in a host of hugely popular TV shows from Blackadder and Miss Marple to more recently the Real Exotic Marigold Hotel and Call the Midwife. And she's also a prolific travel documentarian filming in and around Australia, the US and Scotland to name a few. As a lifelong lover of Charles Dickens, she presented the successful BBC documentary series Dickens' America and toured the world with her acclaimed one woman show ‘Dicken's Women' in which she played 23 characters based on or inspired by characters in Dickens's novels. Speaking to me from her Australian home, Miriam was so engaging and generous with her time both before, after and during the interview - so grab a cuppa, settle in and enjoy listening to the very widely travelled and very entertaining Miriam Margolyes.

In the quiet village of St. Mary Mead, in the peaceful English countryside, the unthinkable happens — a murder. What is more, this is not just any murder. The dead man is found in the local's clergyman's office, blood on the desk and a note in his atrophying hand. Did the clergyman bring an end to the life of a man he envied? Or was it one of the many country folks who openly hated the deceased? One observant spinster aims to get to the bottom of the mystery before the wrong man is hanged.   The observant old maid? Miss Marple.

Recorded at their London residency in February 2022, the whole team is back together, and joining them is not only a room packed to the rafters of fellow drunk detectives but also returned to the force, comedian, and right-wing political pundit** Gráinne Maguire!** This might be a lie (it definitely IS a lie) Gráinne is back to treat us to another crime story from her life, this time it looks as though she may also be the perpetrator, due to inaction rather than malicious intent. The team then crack into a case that would have even Miss Marple and Poirot scratching their heads for answers. We then hear from a member of the audience whose Roman holiday had her returning to the UK with a suspect list that reads like the beginning of a joke.Check out drunkwomensolvingcrime.com for full details of upcoming live shows AND support them on Patreon HERE: patreon.com/drunkwomensolvingcrime See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
