Description
The villagers of Chipping Cleghorn are agog with curiosity when the Gazette advertises "A murder is announced and will take place on Friday, October 29th, at Little Paddocks at 6:30 p.m."

A childish practical joke? A spiteful hoax? Unable to resist the mysterious invitation, the locals arrive at Little Paddocks at the appointed time when, without warning, the lights go out and a door swings open revealing a man with a gun who demands, "Stick 'em up." Most people think it's a game, until shots are fired.

An impossible crime? Only Miss Marple can unravel the clues in this classic of crime fiction.
