In the penultimate episode of season 1 of "Tea & Murder: An Agatha Christie Podcast," host Rebecca Thandi Norman speaks with the current author of the Hercule Poirot series (as well as many of her own books!) Sophie Hannah. Sophie discusses one of her favorite Christie mysteries: Evil Under the Sun, why Poirot never gets to take a vacation, and what makes for an ideal murder mystery location. She also talks through the process of taking on Poirot as a character but not taking on Christie's voice, and why she would never try to do that..
