Murder on the Menu: Recipes Inspired by Hercule Poirot

As any fan of Agatha Christie mysteries knows, Hercule Poirot  is a gourmand. There’s more to the private eye than his patent leather  shoes, fastidiously maintained mustache, and brilliant deductive  mind―always in pursuit of the perfect meal, Christie’s most famous  character approaches every repast with the same discipline and  meticulous attention to detail that he gives to his casework.

In Murder on the Menu,  detective fiction doyenne Karen Pierce channels the celebrated  detective’s epicurean philosophy and serves up more than 65 recipes in  inspired menus, inviting readers on a culinary adventure inspired by  Christie’s beloved short stories and mysteries. Recipes include Dauphin  Potatoes, Mulligatawny Soup, Grilled Dover Sole, and more. Headnotes  explore each dish’s history while charming illustrations adorn each  page. Perfect for murder mystery dinner clubs and parties, Murder on the Menu is an invaluable complement to any Christie enthusiast’s collection.
