For an instant the two trains ran together, side by side. In that frozen moment, Mrs Mrs. McGillicuddy witnessed a murder - a man remorselessly tightened his grip around a woman's throat. The body crumpled. Then the other train drew away.
But who, apart from Miss Marple, would take her story seriously? After all, there were no suspects, no other witnesses... and no corpse.
Miss Marple soon engages the services of a young woman who goes undercover as a housekeeper to investigate. Whilst the investigations take place and the dead body is found dumped on the Rutherford Hall estate, it transpires the secrets of seemingly innocent family get revealed. But who is the murderer?
An impressive adaptation to one of my favourite Miss Marple books, which more or less follows the plot, presents the characters in fine fashion and keeps things interesting and the suspense bubbling. Geraldine McEwan as Miss Marple hits her stride at this point, giving her own unique interpretation to the role and supporting her is an able cast.
