Synopsis
The second series of stories featuring Agatha Christie's diminutive elderly detective, Miss Jane Marple. In "A Pocketful of Rye," Miss Marple solves the murder of a prominent London financier who is found murdered in his office with a handful of rye in his pocket, with no member of his family or staff seeming the least bit upset. In "A Murder Is Announced," an advertisement is placed in a village newspaper forecasting the time and place of a murder. Only Miss Marple realizes that the anonymous announcement is not a spoof.
