The Murder on the Links by Agatha Christie


Listen Later

Today's novel is Agatha Christie by way of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It's easy to forget that the Queen of Crime and the creator of Sherlock Holmes were both alive and writing in the 1920s and The Murder on the Links - Christie's third novel and second to feature Hercule Poirot - shows just how much Christie was influenced by her famous predecessor. Tune in for a discussion of the novel's similarity to the Sherlock Holmes stories, and how Doyle was involved in the real-life disappearance of Agatha Christie in 1926!
