Crime writer Sophie Hannah to continue Agatha Christie’s Poirot mysteries Posted: 04 Sep 2013 05:44 PM PDT September 05, 2013 Latest Update: September 05, 2013 04:44 pm Agatha Christie's "Hercule Poirot" novels will live on in 2014, with crime author Sophie Hannah chosen to carry on the tradition of inquisitive detective work. Due in September 2014, the new authorial appointment came about as a result of a fortunate turn of events, with Christie's grandson Mathew Pritchard describing it as "pure serendipity." "[Sophie's] agent happened to approach HarperCollins in exactly the same week that my colleagues and I had started discussing a new Christie book. Her idea for a plotline was so compelling and her passion for my grandmother's work so strong, that we felt that the time was right." As for Hannah, her own career as a crime writer was the direct result of an early immersion in the lives and cases of Christie creations Miss Marple and Hercule Poirot.  "Christie's brilliant plotting and deep understanding of the human psyche shaped my identity as a crime writer," she said, calling herself an "obsessively" devoted fan. The recruitment comes after Ian Fleming's James Bond books has been picked up by Jeffery Deaver and William Boyd, while Sebastian Faulks has not only penned a new Bond but also has a Jeeves and Wooster in the works for this November. – AFP/Relaxnews, September 5, 2013.
