The Body in the Library / Agatha Christie / 198 pages / November Challenge Deceased Author

A girl is found strangled in Colonel Bantry's library - a girl in cheap satin, a peroxide blonde.  Is the Colonel guilty of murder... or is Basil Blake, the film man responsible for the blonde's presence in the otherwise staid, respectable establishment and town?  Miss Marple uses her keen instincts and observation skills to unmask the killer.  The who-done-it is most refreshing for its scarcity of inappropriate language and its ability to test one's deductive reasoning skills.  Can you solve the mystery before Miss Marple?
