This is by far one of my favorite works by Agatha Christie - a perfect example of the "cozy" mysteries where the detective would solve puzzlers from his/her armchair. The stories all get to show off Miss Marple at her best. The action begins when six people form a "Tuesday Night Club" aimed at solving various crimes that only they know the solution to. Miss Marple asks to join in and rather condescendingly, the other members allow her to participate. Each week, one member narrates a mystery which the others try to solve. Ironically, it is Miss Marple that unerringly leaps to the truth each time while the supposedly more worldly people fail! Her explanation is that having lived in a small village her whole life, she has developed a very good understanding of human nature and is able to see patterns in crimes that leads her to the truth. There is an air of gentle wisdom about Miss Marple that is a refreshing change from Christie's other detective Hercule Poirot who can be insufferably arrogant sometimes. The other nice thing is that while the stories start out as a game, other players soon develop such great respect for Miss Marple's mental abilities that they start coming to her for solutions to unsolved tragedies. Each story is a little gem, full of atmosphere with some pretty puzzling twists. If you like your mysteries more refined and your preferred means of death arsenic in the teacup instead of a gunshot wound to the head, this book is a must-read!
