It's time for another Hallowe'en SPOOKTACULAR episode, covering what I believe to be Christie's final original short story (for now) not yet covered on the podcast.... You might want to pair this one with The Hound of the Baskervilles by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for maximal canine creepiness. Poor hounds; they get such a bum rap.

How did it take this long for me to clip from Fawlty Towers on one of my episodes recorded in Torquay?! Thank goodness for Dr. Mark Aldridge and Gray Robert Brown, who were kind enough to come on for another crossover episode, this time with their latest podcast project, Westmapod, focused on the works of Mary Westmacott. It was such a joy to rank all six of the Mary Westmacotts with them for this episode, and I can't wait to have them on again--no matter the topic.

You can check out Mark and Gray's Swinging Christies podcast, as well as the book they've written on the topic of Christie in the sixties, which is currently available for pre-order (pre-orders really matter!).

You can also find them on Instagram⁠ ⁠@Christie_Time⁠⁠, on Bluesky at⁠ ⁠⁠⁠ChristieTime.com⁠, on YouTube ⁠@TheSwingingChristies⁠, and on their website, ⁠⁠⁠ChristieTime.com⁠⁠⁠⁠.

It's the most wonderful time of the year: when I get to catch up with Christie fans, scholars, and friends, and debate questions such as which among all of Agatha Christie's narrators is the best. I had so much fun! Thank you again to my co-panelists Tina Hodgkinson, Brad Friedman, Dr. Jamie Bernthal-Hooker, and Victoria Dowd.

You can now purchase Sweet Spot, the third book in my Ghostwriter Mysteries series.
