“Murders can happen anywhere…. and do”

I love books that one can dip-in and dip-out of and with Murder She Said: The Quotable Miss Marple - this is another one to add to my ever-growing reference library.  This gem of a book will be an excellent gift for Agatha Christie fans, and certainly a good idea for anyone looking for that last minute present as well.

With a thoughtful introduction by Tony Medawar the book is then split into a number of different chapter headings including Crime and Detection, Murder and Miss Marple on Miss Marple to name a few.   

Murder She Said has over 120 delicious quotes along with an exclusive essay (originally written in 1928). Forget about the ‘fluffy and dithery’ impression that some have of Miss Marple. This is a superb way to re-discover and appreciate that sharp wit and wisdom that belongs to one of the most recognised amateur detectives.  

As she says “I take an interest in everything”.  This book Murder She Said this is an ideal opportunity to indulge in all things Miss Marple.
