书籍简介

这是一部全新的总集，包括55个短篇小说，首次按时间顺序呈现。

马普尔小姐被她的朋友多莉-班特里描述为 "小说中典型的老处女"，她几乎一生都生活在圣玛丽-米德这个沉睡的小村庄。然而，通过观察乡村生活，她对人性有了无与伦比的洞察力--并将其用于破坏性的效果。正如她的朋友、前苏格兰场专员亨利-克利瑟林爵士所言："她是上帝创造的最好的侦探。- 许多阿加莎-克里斯蒂的粉丝都会同意。

她在《牧师家的谋杀案》（1930年）中首次露面，1977年在《沉睡的谋杀案》中解决了她的最后一个案件，她的打击犯罪生涯跨越了40多年。这些短篇小说中的每一个故事都是由犯罪女王本人完美策划的，为阿加莎-克里斯蒂的铁杆粉丝以及那些通过她在电影和电视中的多次亮相而逐渐喜欢上这位侦探的人们提供了一场盛宴。

在这里，首次将阿加莎-克里斯蒂的50多部微型杰作收集在一起，完美地诠释了她的真正才华。除了以马普尔小姐为主角的每一个故事外，本书还包括其他独立的故事，从超自然的恐怖故事，到充满悬念的神秘故事，再到令人心惊肉跳的谋杀案件。

A brand new omnibus of 55 short stories, presented for the first time in chronological order.

Described by her friend Dolly Bantry as ' the typical old maid of fiction', Miss Marple has lived almost her entire life in the sleepy hamlet of St Mary Mead. Yet, by observing village life she has gained an unparalleled insight into human nature - and used it to devasting effect. As her friend Sir Henry Clithering, the ex-Commissioner of Scotland Yard has been heard to say: 'She's just the finest detective God ever made.' - and many Agatha Christie fans would agree.

Appearing for the first time in The Murder at The Vicarage (1930) her crime-fighting career spanned over forty years when she solved her final case in 1977 in Sleeping Murder. With every tale flawlessly plotted by the Queen of Crime herself, these short stories provide a feast for hardened Agatha Christie addicts as well as those who have grown to love the detective through her many film and television appearances.

Here, for the first time, more than 50 of Agatha Christie's mini masterpieces have been collected together in one volume, perfectly illustrating the true breadth of her talent. As well as every story featuring Miss Marple, the book includes additional stand-alone tales, from macabre tales of the supernatural, through suspense-ridden mysteries, to heart-stopping cases of murder.
