Description
An ordinary village. A shocking announcement.
One morning the villagers of Chipping Cleghorn wake to find a strange notice in their papers:
'A murder is announced and will take place on Friday, October 29th, at Little Paddock at 6.30pm.'
Suspecting this is just a joke, they gather for some evening entertainment. Then a gunshot is heard.
In desperation, the police turn to an old lady whose hobbies are gardening, gossiping - and solving murders. After all, old ladies know better than anyone exactly what goes on in quiet English villages...
