A Caribbean Mystery

Mystery with Agatha Christie's amateur sleuth. Miss Marple is sent to recuperate in the lush green tropical paradise of Barbados - but a murderer strikes.

Miss Marple has been sent to Barbados on holiday by her nephew Raymond West.

When Major Palgrave, the hotel bore, is found dead in the doorway of his cottage, everyone except Miss Marple accepts that he has died of natural causes. During the postmortem examination, it is found that the major was indeed poisoned. Victoria Johnson is also found murdered with a kitchen knife in her chest.

It is time for Miss Marple to join forces with the police in order to solve the mystery and prevent a third murder.
