God and the Little Grey Cells: Religion in Agatha Christie's Poirot Stories.

The article reviews three scholarly works focused on the intersection of religion, literature, and detective fiction. The first highlights Sandberg's *Studying Crime in Fiction* as a clear, accessible resource valuable for both novices and experts studying crime fiction. The second discusses Dan W. Clanton Jr.'s *God and the Little Grey Cells*, which examines Christianity and biblical influences in Agatha Christie's Poirot stories, while also addressing Christie's portrayals of Jews and Muslims and her nuanced engagement with Christian cultural norms. The third review covers Jem Bloomfield's *Allusion in Detective Fiction*, which analyzes the frequent references to Shakespeare and the Bible in detective fiction, contextualizing these allusions within changing cultural and scholarly attitudes from the late nineteenth century onward. Each work contributes to understanding the religious and cultural dimensions embedded in crime and detective literature.
