From the Back Cover
Rex Fortescue, king of a financial empire, was sipping tea in his “counting house” when he suffered an agonizing 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 parlor which confirmed Miss Marple’s suspicion that here she was looking at a case of crime by rhyme. . . .

Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Good+. Fifteenth Printing. Spine, covers a bit creased, corners bumped, minor shelf wear, slightly shelf-cocked. ; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall; "The murdered man's widow was an alluring woman. Adele Fortescue's appeal was obvious, not subtle. It simply said to every man, 'Here am I. I'm a woman.' She spoke and moved and breathed sex. "'I've been trying to get in touch with you since this morning,' Inspector Neele said. 'Your husband was taken to St. Jude's Hospital. ' "'You don't mean - he isn't - dead? ' She fumbled with her bag, pulled out a handkerchief and sobbed in a manner that was almost convincing. "'I'll send someone to you,' said Inspector Neele, watching her closely as he went to the door. She likes men, he thought, but she'll always like money better. The handkerchief did not quite obscure her mouth. On her lips, he noted, there was a very faint smile. ". Seller Inventory # 001235
