1989 · 104 min

A genteel, sunlit whodunit that quietly tightens around you as an elderly observer pieces together what others overlook.

Overview
While on vacation at a resort hotel in the West Indies, Miss Marple correctly suspects that the apparently natural death of a retired British major is actually the work of a murderer planning yet another killing.
