The story begins when Mrs. Elspeth McGillicuddy witnesses a shocking crime: while traveling on the 4.50 train from Paddington station, she sees a woman being strangled in a passing train. However, when she reports it, no body is found and no one seems to believe her—except her old friend, Miss Jane Marple. Convinced of the truth, Miss Marple sends her resourceful young friend Lucy Eyelesbarrow to investigate undercover at Rutherford Hall, where she suspects the body might have been hidden. As secrets of the aristocratic Crackenthorpe family come to light, Miss Marple pieces together the truth with her trademark intuition and calm logic, ultimately solving the mystery in her subtle but brilliant style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"904\" data-end=\"1812\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"904\" data-end=\"942\"\u003eAbout the Author – \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"904\" data-end=\"1812\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eAgatha Christie (1890–1976) was an English crime novelist, short story writer, and playwright, famously known as the \"Queen of Crime.\" Her career spanned over five decades, during which she wrote 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections, many featuring her iconic sleuths Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple.
