What to expect
A wealthy family
A fatal cup of tea
Rex Fortescue was enjoying his morning cup of tea when he met his untimely end.
Suspicions naturally turn to his wife. He was filthy rich, after all.
Then she too is found dead.
Strange clues have Scotland Yard’s finest minds scratching their heads. Poisoned marmalade. Dead blackbirds. A victim found with a pocketful of rye.
It’s up to Jane Marple to put the pieces of this strange puzzle together…
Never underestimate Miss Marple
‘Captivating and addictive, Agatha Christie's work never fails to delight.’
Jean Kwok
‘This is the best of the novels starring Christie’s Miss Marple.’
