From the dust jacket flap notes: “ Presented for the first time in one volume are all twenty of the short stories featuring Miss Jane Marple, that delightful spinster whose innocent blue eyes belie her shrewd insights. Here, in her pretty Victorian home, her knitting needles clicking softly in the background, Agatha Christie’s famous amateur sleuth solves twenty crimes in her mild, quiet manner, basing her solutions on past experiences and an insistence that human nature is the same everywhere. These stories are masterpieces of detection and each one has just the added ingenious twist that only Agatha Christie can give.” Book’s been stored in a smoke free home with two short haired pets.
