Agatha Christie
â€˜Anyone who murdered Colonel Protheroe,â€™ declared the parson, brandishing a carving knife above a joint of roast beef, â€˜would be doing the world at large a favour!â€™ It was a careless remark for a man of the cloth. And one which was to come back and haunt the clergyman just a few hours later â€“ when the colonel was found shot dead in the clergymanâ€™s study. But as Miss Marple soon discovers, the whole village seems to have had a motive to kill Colonel Protheroe.,Librarian's note: this is one of 13 books in the Miss Marple series, which includes twelve novels and one collection of short stories - "The Thirteen Problems."
