Descrição
In a chilling tale reminiscent of Agatha Christie's finest mysteries, Miss Marple finds herself drawn back into a past laced with intrigue. Fifteen years have slipped by since her niece, Mabel Denman, became embroiled in a scandal that shattered her life and reputation. Accused of murdering her domineering and violent husband, Mabel's case was steeped in shadows and unanswered questions.
Now, as time has faded some memories yet intensified others, Miss Marple's astute observational skills are once again put to the test. The resurfacing of this old wound compels her to uncover the truth. The quaint village setting and its surrounding characters turn out to hold secrets of their own, as Miss Marple navigates the tangled web of relationships, motives, and hidden pasts that linger in the minds of those who knew them.
As layers of the past unravel, long-buried animosities and tender memories resurface, creating a delicate balance between love and vengeance. With her sharp wit and keen intuition, Miss Marple becomes the beacon of hope for those seeking justice, determined to clear her niece's name once and for all.
The investigation is not without its dangers, as Miss Marple delves deeper into the darkness that shrouded the original events. Each revelation brings her closer to understanding the complexity of human nature, inviting readers on a journey filled with suspense, emotional depth, and the enduring quest for truth. As she unravels the final threads of this gripping narrative, the subtle intelligence of Miss Marple shines through, reminding everyone that sometimes, appearances can be deceptively benign.
