Murder Isn't Easy

Murder Isn't Easy: The Forensics of Agatha Christie | Carla Valentine

4 posts | 2 read | 15 to read

Fascinating - Prima Agatha Christie is one of our most beloved authors - a storyteller unparalleled in her clever plots and twisting tales. But Agatha was also a forensic expert; in each of her books she employs an expert weaving of human observation, ingenuity and genuine science of the era. In Murder Isn't Easy Carla Valentine illuminates all of Agatha's incredible knowledge, showing how she stayed at the cutting edge of forensics from ballistics to fingerprint analysis, as seen through much-loved characters such as Poirot and Miss Marple. From the glamour and grit of Agatha Christie's stories, to the real-life cases that inspired them, Murder Isn't Easy will immerse you in the forensics that influenced generations of writers and scientists alike.

A fascinating and informative look at crime through the eyes of Agatha Christie books. If you're a fan of her work, you'll recognise many of the references. I'm a big fan and own just about all her crime books. Most collected by my mum. 4*

Valentine‘s knowledge gained as a pathology technician, her involvement in medicolegal history & her love of Christie shine through. It helped me set some Christie novels in time- in terms of medical advancement & true crime. Valentine has an encyclopaedic knowledge of crimes and evidence collection methods used by Christie and does a fab job of underpinning this with science. What comes through strongly is what a genius Christie really was!
