The very-respectable Colonel and Mrs Bantry have awakened to discover the body of a young woman in their library. She is wearing evening dress and heavy make-up, which is now smeared across her cold cheeks. But who is she? How did she get there? And what is her connection with another dead girl, whose charred remains are later discovered in an abandoned quarry? The Bantrys turn to Miss Marple to solve the mystery.

My first Miss Marple and Mrs. Christie did not disappoint. As per usual I failed to predict the ending but I did have some suspicions which leant towards the conclusion. I feel I should go back to the earliest Marple mystery to get a true feel for the old girl but, for now, it's back to a Poirot.
