The ‘Lost Detectives’ podcast series is back! In Episode 8, Claire Whitehead talks to Dr Grace Docherty about the depiction of non-human things (crime scenes, dead bodies and weapons) in examples of crime fiction from the late imperial era in Russia. Grace received her PhD from the University of St Andrews in 2025. They discuss the depiction of poison as a weapon in Aleksandr Shkliarevskii’s ‘A Secret Investigation’ (1881) and in two works by female authors: Kapitolina Nazar’eva’s Out of the Frying Pan and Into the Fire (1884) and Aleksandra Sokolova’s Without a Trace (1890). The episode is available via the project website at: https://lostdetectives.wp.st-andrews.ac.uk/podcasts/ or via Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/university-of-st-andrews/sets/lost-detectives-podcast
