Marple (1) — THE MURDER AT THE VICARAGE

Agatha Christie’s first ever Miss Marple mystery reissued with a striking new cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers.’Anyone who murdered Colonel Protheroe’ declared the parson brandishing a carving knife above a joint of roast beef ‘would be doing the world at large a service!’It was a careless remark for a man of the cloth. And one which was to come back and haunt the clergyman just a few hours later. From seven potential murderers Miss Marple must seek out the suspect who has both motive and opportunity.
