The definitive companion to the MISS MARPLE novels, short stories, films and TV appearances, now revised and updated.
I have had a lot of experience in solving different little problems that have arisen.
Most of the little problems tackled by Miss Marple occurred in the pretty rural village of St Mary Mead and came in the shape of murder, robbery and blackmail. In the 40 years of her career, she even solved cases as far afield as London and the Caribbean. But though she usually masqueraded as everybodys favourite great aunt, what was she really like
In this authorised biography of the worlds most famous female sleuth, Anne Hart combs through the 12 novels and 20 short stories in which Miss Marple appeared, uncovering clue and amassing all the evidence to solve the most difficult case of them all the mystery of Miss Marple.
This new edition has been updated to include new information about original publication dates, newspaper and magazine serials, and up-to-date lists of TV, radio and stage adaptations (including Geraldine McEwan, Julia McKenzie, June Whitfield and Susie Blake).
A great treat for Agatha Christie addicts.
