A new tie-in edition of one of Agatha Christie's most well-loved Marple mysteries, published to coincide with major ITV series starring Julia McKenzie as Miss Marple. Rex Fortescue, king of a financial empire, was sipping tea in his 'counting house' when he suffered an agonising and sudden death. On later inspection, the pockets of the deceased were found to contain traces of cereals. Yet, it was the incident in the parlour which confirmed Miss Marple's suspicion that here she was looking at a case of crime by rhyme!
