Many others in the village have said that they would like to see the colonel dead, but a number of people have a more specific interest in his death: the colonel’s young wife, Anne; her lover, the artist Lawrence Redding; Archer, a local man given a harsh sentence by the colonel for poaching.

The only one able to see through the blinds and obscurities is Miss Marple, an elderly but sharp-eyed spinster.
