One morning, Mary the maid discovers a dead body in the library - a young, peroxide blonde lying on the hearth rug. She has been strangled. Mrs Bantry turns to her friend and neighbour, Jane Marple, for help. Also there to view the evidence is the local policeman, Lake; the Chief Constable (also a close neighbour), Colonel Melchett; and the relentless Inspector Slack. A remark from Miss Marple suggests that Basil Blake, a flamboyant young man in the village who works in the film industry, might be worth investigating. Otherwise the finger of suspicion points to Colonel Bantry himself, particularly when it transpires that the murder victim had been working as a dance hostess at the Majestic Hotel in the nearby seaside resort of Danemouth - and that Colonel Bantry had dined there the previous week. The focus of the investigation shifts to the Majestic. Mrs Bantry and Miss Marple decide to take a suite there to do some sleuthing of their own and establish Colonel Bantry's innocence. Miss Marple senses an additional catastrophe is imminent...
