Agatha Christie's Marple

Who poisoned wealthy businessman Rex Fortescue? Miss Marple barely has time to ponder this question before her former maid Gladys turns up strangled on the Fortescue estate, a clothes peg stuck on her nose. The murders seem to bear an uncanny resemblance to a child's nursery rhyme. Miss Marple and Inspector Neele uncover clues from the dead man's shadowy past that may reveal a method to the madness.

Murder is easy, as long as nobody thinks it's murder. So says elderly Miss Pinkerton to Miss Marple during a chance encounter on a train. When Miss Pinkerton herself dies, Miss Marple believes it was no accident.

Miss Marple's old friend Carrie-Louise has always had a soft heart for charitable causes. This time it's juvenile criminals, lodged in a reformatory on her estate. But her sister, Ruth van Rydock, is worried about her and asks Miss Marple to pay a visit.

A dying man's last words turn young Bobby Attfield into an amateur detective. With the help of two assistants, beautiful socialite Frankie Derwent and family friend Jane Marple, he sets out to solve the riddle they pose.
