When the Bantrys wake up to find the body of a beautiful young stranger in their library, Dolly Bantry knows there's only one person to call: her old friend Miss Marple. Who was the young girl? What was she doing in the library? And is there a connection with another dead girl, whose charred remains are discovered in an abandoned quarry? Miss Marple must solve the mystery, before tongues start to wag, and the murderer strikes again. Librarian's note: There is an Alternate Cover Edition for this edition of this book here.
