In the sleepy English country village of St. Mary Mead, all is not as it seems. Colonel Protheroe is the most detested man in the village. Everyone from his own wife to the local vicar wishes he were dead. And very soon he is; shot in the head in the vicar's study. A visiting artist confesses to the murder, but residents saw him elsewhere at the time. If he didn't do it, who did? Is he protecting the Colonel's wife whom he loves? Only Miss Marple can unravel the tangled web of clues.
