Description
A Murder is Announced in a small-town newspaper advertisement--and Miss Marple must unravel the fiendish puzzle when a crime does indeed occur.
The villagers of Chipping Cleghorn are agog with curiosity when the Gazette advertises "A murder is announced and will take place on Friday, October 29th, at Little Paddocks at 6.30 p.m."
A childish practical joke? Or a spiteful hoax? Unable to resist the mysterious invitation, the locals arrive at Little Paddocks at the appointed time when, without warning, the lights go out and a gun is fired. When they come back on, a gruesome scene is revealed. An impossible crime? Only Miss Marple can unravel it.
--Jacqueline Winspear, New York Times bestselling author of the Maisie Dobbs novels

"Agatha Christie gave readers the world over a vivid sense of English life, especially in her depiction of the small village where nothing happen--until, of course, a murder is discovered."--Jacqueline Winspear, New York Times bestselling author of the Maisie Dobbs novels
