Hidden History Research

“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”

Appointment with DEATH

Jacquelyn GreigAgatha Christie, POIROTLeave a comment

The book features the Belgian detective Hercule Poirot and reflects Christie’s experiences travelling in the Middle East with her husband, the archaeologist Sir Max Mallowan. The main settings are Jerusalem and Petra.

As always – and this is no criticism (from a HistFic writer that’d be hypocritical) – this episode strays somewhat from the original book which portrays Lady Boynton as PURE EVIL and actually walks you through the perilous path to Petra.

Nonetheless…

I LOVE this.
