A peaceful October visit to Foxglove Farm turns into a quiet but deadly mystery when Honoria Selsey dies after eating wild mushrooms at supper. Everyone believes it was a tragic accident — an expert forager finally fooled by a poisonous death cap.
But Miss Marple is not convinced.
Honoria had known the woods for fifty years. She knew every good mushroom patch, every dangerous corner of the north wood, and every death cap that grew near the old cattle track. A woman like that does not make a beginner’s mistake.
As village gossip spreads through Nethercombe, hidden motives begin to appear — a changed will, a desperate nephew, farm debts, a boundary quarrel, a silent wife, a watchful cook, and a lodger who knows far too much about fungi.
Miss Marple follows the smallest clues: the smell of frying butter, the empty mushroom basket, the gap in the kitchen, a planted remark at supper, and the strange earth scent on a coat.
Follow Miss Marple as she uncovers the truth hidden inside an ordinary farmhouse kitchen, where fear, inheritance, and one fatal mushroom lead to murder.
