Joan is Miss Marple
This short, typically Miss Marple case is part of the TNMC. It’s wonderful and a real tribute to the skills of JH and the skills of AC. Wonderful listening to in the car

Short but wonderful
Joan Hickson could read a dictionaries and make it interesting. Pair her with the wonderful Agatha Christie and you have a match made in heaven.
Great short story.

Miss Marlow at her best
I have loved reading Agatha Christie books since I was at school, and I still do. This is another great short story about the wonderful Miss Marple.

There’s no other Miss Marple
Joan Higson is the definitive Miss Marple, as exemplified here.
She only lets her guard down once - the editors failed to spot the first mention of MM’s village being St. Mary’S Mead and correctly as St. Mary Mead thereafter. But I can forgive Joan Higson anything, there is no other Miss Marple.
Classic Christie plot and I particularly liked the ending,
