The ABC Murders by Agatha Christie - Part Two

We discuss chapters 15-27 of Agatha Christie's notorious serial murder story, 'The ABC Murders'. A fourth murder has taken place, but breaks the pattern of alliteration. Is the killer getting sloppy? It certainly seems so, as Alexander Bonaparte Cust totters around right under the Legion's nose. As their faith in Poirot wavers as much as their reliance on him grows, the threat of impending murders lingers. How does one catch a serial killer whose calling card is so distinct but indecipherable? We also chat with Sophie Hannah about writing Poirot, and the importance of sidekicks and their voice of wisdom in a Christie novel. Which friend of the Belgian really loves him the most? Thank you to Sophie Hannah for providing a review copy of her mystery musical 'The Mystery of Mr. E', and Harper Collins for providing copies of 'Silent Night'.
