Program Description

Event Details

It's seven in the morning.  The Bantrys of Gossington Hall wake to find the body of a young woman in their library.  She is wearing evening dress and lurid make-up.  But who is she?  How did she get there?  And is there a connection with another dead girl, whose charred body is later discovered in the abandoned quarry?  The Bantrys, respected gentry in the village, invite Miss Marple to solve the mystery... before tongues start to wag.  This is the second mystery novel in the Miss Jane Marple series.
