(4) Handling: Miss Marple is on a holiday at the
Golden Palm Hotel in the island of St.
Honoré. She is enjoying herself, yet
there is something lacking. At home in
St. Mary Mead, there was always some-
thing going on, something one could
get one's teeth into.
Miss Marple listens politely to Ma-
jor Palgrave's boring stories of his
early life in Kenya–or at any rate
pretends to listen. She is not paying
much attention when he starts telling
her about a murderer he has known ;
and when he reaches in his wallet to
show Miss Marple a snapshot of that
murderer, he is suddenly interrupted.
Murder follows.
In this absorbing new novel the
clues and keys to the murderer's iden-
tity are fairly–one might even say
ostentatiously – paraded in front of
the reader. Yet we believe it will be a
very perceptive reader who observes
and interprets them correctly. Most
of the readers of A Caribbean Mystery
will in the end ask themselves how
they could have been so blind–or how
Agatha Christie could have fooled
them once again.
This is yet another dazzling tour-
de-force from the greatest crime nov-
elist of our time.
