    Not the best, but still enjoyable.

    A neighboring town is stricken with a series of 'poison pen' letters—ransom-style anonymous notes accusing villagers of various vices and moral transgressions. When a local woman is found dead with a suicide note, Miss Marple smells foul play. With a wealth of shady suspects to choose from, she hastens to prevent another 'suicide.' The young love in The Moving Finger is rather tiresome, particularly when it devolves into a bizarre My Fair Lady allusion montage. Otherwise, it's an enjoyable case, with lots of 'finger pointing' which keeps you guessing the murderer right to the end!
