Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMiss Marple does not appear in Agatha Christie's original novel, which was an adventure featuring her other sleuths, Tommy and Tuppence Beresford. In order to make the story part of the Marple series, the time period was moved from post-war to sometime near the end of the war. This conveniently places Tommy still in the military intelligence service abroad, and his part of the story was re-written for Miss Marple.
- GoofsTowards the end, Septimus Bligh is pulling the ropes of two of the church bells. While it is possible for a single person to chime two bells. Each bell in a church tower is a different pitch. The two bells Septimus Bligh had the same pitch and is therefore not possible.
