Chapter Fourteen | Karen Pierce - Recipes For Murder Cookbook

Raven Rollins and her amateur-chef husband Rick sit down with author Karen Pierce for a conversation surrounding mystery fiction, literary inspiration, and the deliciously dark world behind her cookbook, “Recipes for Murder: 66 Dishes That Celebrate the Mysteries of Agatha Christie.”A self-proclaimed foodie, amateur cook, and lifelong fan of Agatha Christie. Karen became increasingly fascinated by the recurring role food played within the mysteries — from elegant dinners and curious drinks to subtle culinary details hidden throughout the narratives inspiring the creation of “Recipes for Murder,” the first cookbook dedicated to exploring food and drink throughout Christie’s novels.Together, Raven, Rick, and Karen discuss mystery storytelling, literary atmosphere, Christie’s enduring influence on the genre, and the fascinating relationship between food, setting, and narrative immersion. The conversation also features a little kitchen experimentation of their own, as Raven and Rick may have attempted a dish or two from the book themselves.Get the cookbook wherever books are sold.(This episode originally aired on the podcast Sirens | Southern True Crime with Raven Rollins.
