Now with a beautiful new series look, a classic mystery from the Queen of Crime in which the indomitable Miss Marple exposes a small town's shameful secrets. Lymstock is a town with more than its share of scandalous secrets--a town where even a sudden outbreak of anonymous hate mail causes only a minor stir. But all that changes when one of the recipients, Mrs. Symmington, commits suicide. Her final note says "I can't go on," but Miss Marple questions the coroner's verdict of suicide. Soon nobody is sure of anyone--as secrets stop being shameful and start becoming deadly. In the book, Jerry and Joanna Burton, a brother and sister from London, move to the small village of Lymstock so Jerry can recover from injuries suffered in a motorcycle crash. People in the village start receiving anonymous letters, each one accusing the recipient of the most scandalous deeds. One recipient dies in an apparent suicide. Jerry gets involved trying to help.
