Introducing Miss Jane Marple
It’s a historic event in detective fiction as the unflappable sleuth’s passion for gossip - and cheerful recognition of worst side of human nature - leads her to a crime scene at the local vicarage. Colonel Protheroe, St Mary Mead’s most loathed magistrate, has been found shot through the head. But it isn’t the ‘pompous old brute’s’ murder that raises eyebrows, but rather the scandalous secrets it exposes. Those secrets are about to put St Mary Mead on the map - and send Miss Marple on the trail of a killer with something to hide.

Ian Masters’ many screen credits include Red Dwarf, Piglet Files and The Hale and Pace Show. His theatre credits include The Winslow Boy, Run For Your Wife and Noises Off at the Savoy Theatre in the West End.

When Jane Marple goes to stay with her old, and rather frail, friend Carrie-Louise at her sprawling Victorian Gothic mansion she soon begins to realize that all is not well there. Not only is this the family home but it is also a rehabilitation centre for delinquent boys and there are definitely some odd characters riving there.
Then an attempt is made on the life of Carrie-Louise’s husband, her stepson is shot to death and someone tries to poison Carrie-Louise. Can Miss Marple protect her friend and help the police unmask a brutal, and possibly deranged killer?

Just after midnight, a snowdrift stopped the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train was surprisingly full for the time of year. But by the morning there was one passenger fewer. An American lay dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside . . .
Red herrings galore are put in the path of Hercule Poirot to try and keep him off the scent, but in a dramatic dénouement he succeeds in coming up with not one, but two solutions to the crime.
