A Pocket Full of Rye by Agatha Christie

A Pocket Full of Rye by Agatha Christie

Rex Fortescue dies of poison in his City office, and the police find a handful of rye in his jacket pocket that nobody can explain. Then his young wife is killed with bread and honey, and a housemaid is strangled with a peg on her nose.

Miss Marple arrives because the housemaid was a girl she trained, and she is the only person who notices that the murders are following Sing a Song of Sixpence. Christie uses the nursery rhyme as misdirection rather than decoration, and the reason someone would go to that trouble is the whole solution.

One of the best Marple novels, and the one where her anger is closest to the surface.
