The Murder at the Vicarage by Agatha Christie
When an unloved local is murdered in the small rural town of St. Mary Mead, the local vicar takes up the case. But he soon finds himself relying on the help of his gossipy neighbor—an old spinster named Miss Marple. This is the first full-length story featuring the homely sleuth who would go on to become one of Christie’s most beloved characters.
