THE MIRROR CRACK'D FROM SIDE TO SIDE

Jane Marple was growing old and frail but her mind- and her curiosity — were as keen as ever and she hated the impositions put upon her. When things in her quiet neighborhood began to change she prowled on the QT until she had some understanding of the newcomers. And when the screen actress, Marina Gregg, moved with her coterie to a big Victorian estate and a succession of mysterious deaths followed, Miss Marple refused to stay out of the picture. It was her prying curiosity- her gift of putting odd bits together to form a picture that gave the locals and Scotland Yard the proper solution. Long life to her.
