A weekly dinner party
Ten amateur sleuths
The Tuesday Night Club murders
On a quiet Tuesday in St Mary Mead, a group of friends gather for dinner.
A policeman, a clergyman, a solicitor, an author, an artist, and an unassuming lady with a shrewd gaze – Miss Jane Marple. Conversation naturally turns to crime.
Each recounts a seemingly unsolvable mystery. Each thinks they know the answer.
But it’s the one they least expect who understands the true nature of each wicked act…
Never underestimate Miss Marple.

ОПИСАНИЕ ТОВАРА:
There's more than petty theft going on in a London youth hostel...
An outbreak of kleptomania at a student hostel was not normally the sort of crime that aroused Hercule Poirot's interest. But when he saw the list of stolen and vandalized items - including a stethoscope, some old flannel trousers, a box of chocolates, a slashed rucksack and a diamond ring found in a bowl of soup - he congratulated the warden, Mrs Hubbard, on a ‘unique and beautiful problem'.
The list made absolutely no sense at all. But, reasoned Poirot, if this was merely a petty thief at work, why was everyone at the hostel so frightened?
