Some pics from the great #AChristieForChristmas event on Tuesday, on a panel with the lovely Sophie Hannah and Lucy Foley, chaired by Jeremy Vine #AgathaChristie

My goodie bag from the Christie for Christmas event. Next year's Poirot calendar, World of Agatha Christie Zine, The Mistletoe Mystery by Nita Prose, and a Tote Bag. The only thing I actually paid for is the collection of Christie short stories "Midwinter Murder". I'm suddenly feeling festive.

My haul from the #AChristieforChristmas event the other night. Still basking in the afterglow and feeling a little bit festive *way* too early... but I'll take it.

Panel at #AChristieForChristmas discussing #AgathaChristie bestseller And Then There Were None.

Confession: I find that book a bit *too* creepy!

I’m heading down to London this morning for the inaugural #AChristieForChristmas event. Very much looking forward to it! Spent this morning trying to persuade 12yo daughter, who insists school won’t mind if she comes with me, that it won’t be much fun. Always feel bad lying 🤭
