The Moving Finger - (Miss Marple Mysteries) by Agatha Christie (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Now with a beautiful new series look, a classic mystery from the Queen of Crime in which the indomitable Miss Marple exposes a small town's shameful secrets.

Lymstock is a town with more than its share of scandalous secrets--a town where even a sudden outbreak of anonymous hate mail causes only a minor stir.

But all that changes when one of the recipients, Mrs. Symmington, commits suicide. Her final note says "I can't go on," but Miss Marple questions the coroner's verdict of suicide.

Soon nobody is sure of anyone--as secrets stop being shameful and start becoming deadly.
