Civilians also joined the elaborate manhunt for Mrs. The police threw a huge amount of resources into the search for Agatha Christie, using 1,000 policemen, hounds, and even airplanes for aerial searches. As the author remained missing, the sensation around the case grew. Media coverage and police attention revolved around the case for quite some time. Christie was therefore a well-known figure when she disappeared, and the mystery gripped the literary world and the public with intrigue. Her formula of a mystery, told by a bemused associate of a brilliant detective echoed Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s famous Doctor Watson and Sherlock Holmes. Why did Christie suddenly disappear, and why did she never talk about those 11 days?īy June 1926, Agatha Christie had published six of her most famous works and was considered a promising author of mystery novels starring her Belgian detective Poirot. What happened in those 11 days of disappearance remains a mystery worthy enough to be the plot of one of Christie’s novels. I say all that to say this: love this podcast.On the evening of the 3rd of December, 1926, famous mystery novelist Agatha Christie disappeared. The whole South African vibe in The Man in the Brown Suit, for instance.
Congratulations for soldiering on and for all the wonderful extra episodes!! I’m a woman of colour from The Bahamas who grew up, like Catherine, on my mother’s Agatha Christie paperbacks-I have the very Death in the Clouds Catherine always mentioned-& I thoroughly appreciate your Stuck in its Time category, though there are more than maybe you acknowledge. I came back late in 2022, having not listened for months, finally able to face it again.
Kemper, I stopped listening!! I couldn’t bear the thought of not hearing Catherine argue with you and fight to get a way into your monologues when you get going (you have some serious breath control, my man). One day near the end of 2021 (was it right after Christmas?) I saw a short sad episode pop up. I like to binge on podcasts so I always keep a few steps behind. I started listening from the beginning and found myself getting totally sucked in to Catherine and Kemper’s banter, agreeing and disagreeing with them, not always silently. It’s taken me a looong time to write a review!! I discovered this podcast in 2020 during lockdown.
