Miss Marple investigates the death of an intolerable bully.

9.0

By orswel, Jun 14, 2010

So many people wanted to murder the obnoxious Colonel Protheroe, and one might even sympathise with some of their reasons. Yet Miss Marple, whose warmth and generosity do not prevent her from having a coldly analytical eye, is able to work out why the colonel died and to identify the killer. Long-held friendships cannot be allowed to get in the way of her logic, and they don't. As always in the best Marple stories, there is a terrible pain lurking just under the deceptively tranquil surface of village life, and both strength and weakness are found in the places where you'd least expect them.moreless

- Det. Inspector Slack: I thought it was looking too good to be true. I should've known better! Soon as I saw that nice little grey-haired cobra sliding about, I should've known better.
  Dr. Haydock: Hmm?
  Det. Inspector Slack: The Marple woman. Sticks to this sort of business like chewing gum to the cat.
