On her way home from London, Elspeth McGillicuddy is shocked to witness a brutal crime. As her train runs alongside another, she observes, through the window of the neighboring carriage, a woman being mercilessly strangled. Though the murderer's face is in shadow, Miss McGillicuddy sees the woman's body crumple to the floor just as the two trains go their separate ways. The strangling, however, goes unreported. When no other witness - and no corpse - can be found, who will believe Miss McGillicuddy's story? Who, except Miss Jane Marple? Intrigued by her friend's account, Miss Marple, with the help of the young sleuth, Lucy Eyelesbarrow, launches her own clever investigation that leads to Rutherford Hall. The Rutherford clan provides an intriguing cast of suspects, including a cantankerous father, a spinster daughter, and three unusual sons. Lucy and Miss Marple must wend their way through the roots of this family tree in order to finaly unmask a dangerous killer.
