Summary:
A collection of short stories featuring the Queen of Mystery's legendary detective Jane
Marple
, penned by 12 remarkable best-selling and acclaimed authors. This collection of 12 original short stories, all featuring Jane
Marple
, will introduce the character to a whole
new
generation. Each author reimagines Agatha Christie's
Marple
through their own unique perspective while staying true to the hallmarks of a traditional mystery... Miss
Marple
was first introduced to readers in a story Agatha Christie wrote for The Royal Magazine in 1927 and made her first appearance in a full-length novel in 1930's The Murder at the Vicarage. It has been 45 years since Agatha Christie's last
Marple
novel, Sleeping Murder, was published posthumously in 1976, and this collection of ingenious
new
stories by 12 Christie devotees will be a timely reminder why Jane
Marple
remains the most famous fictional female detective of all time.
