Applaud for Murder Agatha Missy

- TV & Film
Join Emily and Brooke as we recap the Amazon Prime miniseries based on the novels of Agatha Christie. There will be up to eight adaptations over the next four years, so we will have some extra time on our hands. Our first episode will cover the 2017 feature film adaption Murder on the Orient Express starting November 9 in the US.
If you can't get enough of us, we are also doing a series looking at non-murder mystery television shows showcasing Christie tropes and techniques for an episode or two. First up, The Unicorn and the Wasp. Check out Applaud for Murder: TV for episodes.
If you would like to learn more about Agatha Christie, listen to the History Chicks biography (and stay for other great bios).

Episode 003: Ordeal By Sweetness
This episode we talk about our trip to a mansion for a Clue party and we cover Amazon's Ordeal By Innocence.
Summary: Wealthy heiress Rachel Argyll is found bludgeoned to death in her palatial home where she lives with her husband Leo, their five adopted children Mary, Mickey, Jack, Tina, and Hester, and their maid Kirsten Lindquist. Jack is arrested for the crime as his fingerprints are found on the presumed murder weapon. He is killed in jail before he can stand trial. Eighteen months later, Leo is set to marry his secretary Gwenda Vaughn, much to his children's dismay. A man named Arthur Calgary arrives and provides an alibi for Jack: he had given him a ride at the time of the murder. -
