Synopsis by Andrea LeVasseur
Part of the British mystery series based on the books by Agatha Christie, Miss Marple: Nemesis was first aired in 1987. This time around, Miss Jane Marple (Joan Hickson) has to figure out what the crime is before she can solve it. She receives a letter from her late friend Michael Rafiel (Bruce Payne) instructing her to investigate a crime following his death. Her only clue is a ticket for a bus tour of historic homes, which inevitably leads to a murder.
