Murder at the vicarage: A classic Miss Marple village mystery of scandal, suspicion, murder, and secrets inside St. Mary Mead

Murder at the Vicarage: A Golden Age Mystery

"Anyone who murdered Colonel Protheroe would be doing the world at large a service."

When the Vicar of St. Mary Mead utters these words at luncheon, he little imagines that the "pompous old brute" will be found dead in his own study the very next day. Colonel Protheroe was a man everyone loved to hate—from his long-suffering wife and rebellious daughter to the various villagers he antagonized with his self-important meddling.

While the local police struggle with a surplus of confessions and a confusing trail of evidence, an unlikely investigator watches from behind her garden hedge. Miss Jane Marple, a white-haired spinster with a profound understanding of human nature, knows that in the quiet village of St. Mary Mead, the worst is usually true. Behind the lace curtains and the polite tea parties lies a web of deceit, secrets, and cold-blooded murder.

Step into the debut of Agatha Christie’s most legendary female sleuth in this quintessential village mystery, narrated with chilling elegance by Jennifer Cramer.
