And again, I have no knowledge of the tv Miss Marple, but this is a reading thread and the print Miss Marple wasn’t inundated with murders in St. Mary Meade, which was your original point.



As I said, a television rant, not a reading rant.
I did mention one person coming across so many murders and Miss Marple is a perfect example of that. When she goes away from home, she finds a murder even if it's not near her home.
