In this book, Carla Valentine talks about how Agatha Christie was able to follow the latest advances in forensic science and even develop it through such beloved characters as Poirot and Miss Marple. Valentine lists the methods described in Christie's books and details the discovery of each. According to the author, Agatha Christie was a pioneer of forensic science, although this science did not yet exist in her time. In her novels, she writes about fingerprint and blood spatter analysis, trace science, firearms, document matching, and more. Poirot could easily tell which weapon had fired the bullet, and Miss Marple was a master at blood spatter analysis. Christy liked to kill the characters in her books with all kinds of poisons, which is explained by her work in a pharmacy during both world wars. Agatha Christie has always relied on the principle of "every contact leaves a trace" to link the killer and the victim through evidence at the crime scene.
