Miss Marple’s Final Cases

A collection of Miss Marple short story mysteries, plus a surprise and two bonuses!

First, there’s a mystery man with a bullet-wound who is found in a church…then, the riddle of a dead man’s buried treasure…the curious conduct of a caretaker after a fatal riding accident…the link between a corpse and a tape-measure…a girl framed for theft…and a suspect accused of stabbing his wife with a dagger. There you have six gripping cases. There’s one more, a surprise. They have one thing in common – the astonishing deductive powers of Miss Marple.

The titles are: 1. Sanctuary, 2. Strange Jest, 3. Tape-Measure Murder, 4. The Case of the Caretaker, 5. The Case of the Perfect Maid, 6. Miss Marple Tells a Story, 7. The Dressmaker’s Doll, 8. In a Glass Darkly, and 9. Greenshaw’s Folly. The two non-Marple mysteries are #7 and #8 – both are Agatha Christie standalone short stories.
