Hi I am a patron of the podcast, been waiting for the book since you starting mentioning it. wanted to know if there’s a way we can buy it and get it before January? Special early sale for Podcast Patrons 😅. PS I do not agree with your opinions of Geraldine McEwan. She is the superior Marple across all adaptations. It is not her fault that show jumps the shark so much.

I wish I could get the book early to Patrons! But the release is out of my control.... I will say, however, that listeners of the podcast will have a definite advantage in terms of solving the mystery. There are lots of nods to the tropes and tricks discussed Catherine and I discussed over the years.... I hope you enjoy it when you get to read it.

And fair enough re: Geraldine McEwan! I know there are many Christie fans who adore her, even though I do not. Half the fun of being part of the community of Christie obsessives is how much we disagree!

All my best,
Kemper(less)
