At Bertram's Hotel: A Miss Marple Mystery( Series - Agatha Christie Collection )

Miss Jane Marple is on vacation and loving every minute of her stay at London's eminently expensive bastion of tradition, Bertram's Hotel. But its impeccable old-world reputation is being tarnished -- by new blood. For someone disreputable has just checked in. And what's now going on at Bertam's Hotel is a crime.

Miss Jane Marple has checked into Bertram's Hotel in London for a much-needed vacation. The last thing she expects is that this elegant establishment, known for its service and old-world charm, could be embroiled in scandal. But after a series of strange events--including the disappearance of a fellow guest, the arrival of a notorious celebrity bad boy, and finally, a shocking murder--she finds herself drawn into a multifaceted mystery.

The hotel is full of suspects who have potential motives--and convenient alibis. While the local inspector is preoccupied with a series of recent robberies, only Miss Marple, with her shrewd observations and keen understanding of human nature, can sort out the puzzling sequence of events and zero in on the killer.
