Agatha Christie, Rachel Wagstaff An all-too-silent town in the English countryside comes alive with an extraordinary upheaval: the local stately home is bought by Hollywood star Marina Gregg, and shortly after her arrival, a strange murder occurs at a charity party. The young Inspector Craddock has a strong suspicion that Marina was the one who drank the poisoned cocktail, and his investigation is primarily aimed at preventing the killer from completing the crime. This psychologically sophisticated whodunit features the irresistibly witty Miss Marple, who uncovers the killer not only with her keen judgement but also with a little help from her feminine intuition. The new adaptation of the popular classic of the detective genre works with an original form and excels in humorous theatrical situations. As is Agatha Christie's good habit, the search for suspects above all reveals the entangled relationships between the characters. Miss Marple plays a major role here, and her inquisitive questions, which she casually asks of the party-goers and Craddock himself, allow her to find possible clues in the delicate web of memories. For memories are strangely coloured and influenced by our feelings. In order to uncover the murderer, the young detective must also clarify his relationship with Miss Marple, who raised him, though she is not his mother. The key question is: where does a mother's love begin and end?
