Welcome, dear listeners, to a Christmas gathering where the candlelight is warm, the carols are sweet — and murder sits quietly among the guests, smiling like everyone else.
Faringdon Hall, Christmas Eve. A wealthy and tyrannical uncle, a family held in the grip of his power, and a glass of punch that should have been harmless. When Selwyn Carrick is found dead in the library, the police call it poison — and the list of suspects includes nearly everyone in the house. But an elderly lady with a knitting basket and a lifetime of noticing small things is already watching. In a room full of paper hats and private smiles, Miss Marple will find the truth where no one else thought to look.

About the Story:
England, a country manor at Christmas. Selwyn Carrick — rich, overbearing, and quietly cruel — is found dead in the library with a nearly full glass of punch beside him. The police surgeon finds poison. The suspects include a nephew drowning in debt, a niece with everything to lose, and guests hiding secrets Carrick was threatening to expose. But Miss Marple, a harmless-looking old lady knitting by the fire, notices what everyone else misses: the unfinished sentence, the handkerchief never produced, the housemaid who saw more than she told. A classic English Christmas mystery with a dark heart.
For Fans of: Miss Marple, Agatha Christie, Christmas mysteries, English country house whodunits, classic detective fiction, cozy crime, audiobooks for the holidays.
