The Murder at the Vicarage
Condition: Very goodVery slight tanning to the pages and a price inscription on the first page, but otherwise in excellent condition.
Nobody in St Mary Mead mourns Colonel Protheroe — the vicar himself has been heard to remark that killing him would be a service to the world. So when the Colonel is found shot dead at the vicarage desk, there is no shortage of suspects, and two separate people promptly confess. It falls to an elderly spinster with a lifetime's study of village wickedness, Miss Marple, to untangle it — in the novel that introduced her.
