A Christmas Tragedy: A Miss Marple Short Story

Here's a story for the group from Miss Marple herself. While at a health resort years earlier, Miss Marple had become suspicious. She thought a man she met may have been planning to murder his wife. When Mrs. Sanders did indeed die in suspicious circumstances, the man had a good alibi for his wife's time of death - it included supporting evidence from Miss Marple herself!

The story was first published as "‘The Hat and the Alibi" in "Storyteller" in January 1930.
