Robin Morgan is joined in the Audible Studios by the best-selling and award-winning British poet and novelist Sophie Hannah. Sophie's first collection of poetry was published when she was just 24 - now her work is studied at GCSE, A-level and degree level across the UK and she has been shortlisted for the TS Eliot Award. She is also the author of many brilliant mystery and crime novels including the Zailer & Waterhouse Mysteries series and two new Hercule Poirot novels, written at the request of Agatha Christie's family and estate.

Agatha Christie was not only the biggest selling writer of detective stories the world has ever known, she was also a mystery in herself, giving only the rarest interviews, declining absolutely to become any sort of public figure and a mystery too in the manner in which she achieved her astonishing success. HRF Keating, a crime novelist and respected reviewer of crime fiction, brought together a dozen distinguished writers from both sides of the Atlantic to throw light on this double mystery.

Sophie: The Final Verdict tells a remarkable story that could not until now be revealed. Senan Molony was the first national crime correspondent at the scene.
