Descriere
A strange house
A ghost from the past
As soon as she moves into Hillside, Gwenda knows there's something strange about this house. A sealed room. A hidden door.
The apparition of a young woman being strangled. But strangest of all - this all seems quite familiar. As her friend Jane Marple investigates, the answer seems to lie in a crime committed nearly twenty years ago.
The killer may have gotten away with murder. But Miss Marple is never far behind. Never underestimate Miss Marple 'Reading a perfectly plotted Agatha Christie is like crunching into a perfect apple: that pure, crisp, absolute satisfaction.'Tana French 'Miss Marple is spry, shrewd and compassionate.' Sunday Telegraph
