Its such a fun romp! It was great to see what all the different authors did with Miss Marple, or even when one of them experimented with having the main voice be a different character. Every story is self contained with some recurring characters showing the passage of time. Some stories had more satisfying resolutions than other's but they all had a high level of charm and quality. This book also can function as a way to find a new author one might not be super falimiar with, and may inspire one to read their books next!
Moderate: Death and Suicide
Lots of murders, but nothing gorey.
