Summary
  • Geraldine McEwan returns as the spinster sleuth, as shrewd and sagacious as ever. Breathing new life into Agatha Christie's novels, these intricately plotted and thoroughly engaging whodunits feature the richly detailed settings, lush cinematography, and imaginative screenplays that won the previous Series 1 overwhelming critical acclaim and an Emmy nomination. McEwan imbues Miss Marple with a kindly sparkle and sly wit that prove irresistible
  • Prim and proper in her smart tweed suits and matching hats, Miss Marple is often overlooked by the police and underestimated by criminals. But she proves her mettle time and again, solving cases that leave even the most experienced professionals flummoxed. These lavish adaptations are filled with rich period detail
