#53 Nemesis

Nemesis is another Miss Marple mystery. Miss Marple receives a letter from Mr. Rafiel's solicitors following his death. Mr. Rafiel was a wealth financier who helped Miss Marple solve the murders in A Caribbean Mystery. The solicitors explain that Mr. Rafiel has asked Miss Marple to act as Nemesis and to seek justice on his behalf. Should she succeed, she will receive 20,000 pounds. Miss Marple accepts the challenge and the wheels are set in motion. First, she is instructed to go on a Home and Garden Tour (all expenses paid by Mr. Rafiel). On the tour, various people who were acquaintances of Mr. Rafiel seek her out and divulge information. Miss Marple has to figure our what crime she is supposed to be avenging and who she can and cannot trust.

Of course Miss Marple succeeds and is awarded her 20,000 pounds.

Apparently, I have three copies of this novel: the above hardback, a paperback, and the third copy is part of a collection of 5 Miss Marple mysteries.
