Welcome to All About Akatha, the podcast dedicated to reading and ranking every single mystery novel written by the Queen of Crime

Dame Agatha Christie. I am Camper Donovan and the day is finally upon us

listeners I no longer have to harangue you about pre-ordering my debut mystery novel, The Busy Body.

Now I can just Herang You about buying it.

The Busy Body is officially out on shelves, although they are virtual shelves over in the United

Kingdom. You can purchase it now as an e-book. It will be available as a physical paperback later this year and in just a few short days the

hardcover will be out on real shelves here in the United States.

So for many of you listening right now, the book is already out in the

U.S. and I encourage you all to go and buy a copy at your local independent bookstore if you possibly can.

The busy body is also available in Canada at the same time

and in about a week's time it will also be available in Australia and New Zealand.

So as always, I have provided links in the notes to this episode,

but they're not pre-order links anymore.

These are just links to buy the book.

And I'm so excited for all of you to get a chance to read it.

As expected it is very much an homage to Agatha Christie and her brilliant mysteries.

tropes that I play around with in the book that will make you smile when you come

across them. You may even have a leg up on solving the puzzle within the puzzle mystery that I have created. I very much wanted to create a

solvable puzzle mystery with clues. There really is a bridge oh clues connecting the world as it appears to be and the world as it actually is.

I'm so so excited to finally be sharing it with you all.

So I just wanted to mention that up top. I am also going on tour starting next week. I'll be in
