Here's a brief synopsis:\u0026lt;!--nl--\u0026gt;\u0026lt;!--nl--\u0026gt;- **Setting**: Miss Marple visits her American school friend, **Ruth Van Rydock**, in London.

Carrie Louise's granddaughter, **Gina**, has brought her American husband, **Walter**, to England to meet the family. Daughter **Mildred Strete** has returned home after being widowed, and stepsons **Stephen** and **Alexis Restarick** are frequent visitors.\u0026lt;!--nl--\u0026gt;- **Unsettling Visitors**: During Miss Marple's visit, an unexpected guest arrives—**Christian Gulbrandsen**, Carrie Louise's stepson from her first marriage.
