Miss Marple is called in to investigate the murder of a dressmaker, a Mrs Spenlow. The police and occupants of St Marys Mead are convinced that the murderer is Mr Spenlow, however they have no proof. Miss Marple is certain that it is someone else and she sets out to find out who.I've been reading a lot of Hercule Poirot short stories, so I thought I'd switch it up with a Miss Marple short story. I really like Miss Marple, even though I tend to read more Hercule Poirot mysteries. This is, of course, because more Hercule Poirot stories were published. So I loved visiting St Marys Mead with Miss Marple.I didn't guess the murderer in this case, although I was pretty certain it wasn't Mr Spenlow. I thought it was really interesting the reasoning behind the murder and I enjoyed the story immensely.Joan Hickson narrates this audiobook, which was great considering that Joan Hickson played Miss Marple on the screen. Her accent was a bit thick for my ears but I adjusted quickly and really enjoyed it.
