- 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?
Join Kelly and Meg as they discover why sometimes the impossible must be possible
