Gothic media moguls Meg Hafdahl and Kelly Florence, authors of The Science of Stephen King and co-hosts of the Horror Rewind podcast called “the best horror film podcast out there” by Film Daddy, present a guide to the Agatha Christie stories and supersleuths we all know and love. Through interviews, literary and film analysis, and bone-chilling discoveries, The Science of Agatha Christie uncovers the science behind the sixty-six detective novels and fourteen short story collections that have become an integral part of the modern murder mystery, answering such questions as:
- What is the science behind the poisons used to commit murders in Agatha Christie’s stories?
- When did crime investigation become more common as seen in Murder on the Orient Express?
- Has science made it possible to uncover the truth behind the investigative powers of Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple?
- How did Agatha Christie use isolated settings to best explore the psychology of her characters?
