*Spoilers for Murder in Mesopotamia*

Our guest this episode is Caroline Crampton, author and host of the Shedunnit podcast. We discuss Murder in Mesopotamia, a book set in an archeological dig. Christie knew dig sites well, and that's reflected in the details of this book. Rebecca and Caroline discuss how her experiences shaped the book, colonial elements of the narrative, and why this is such a great example of a "closed box" mystery.
