Hotel Bertram tampak anggun, penuh daya tarik, dan mengundang nostalgia bagi orang-orang yang pernah mengenalnya berpuluh-puluh tahun lalu. Para tamu yang berdatangan pun tetap dari kalangan yang sama: pejabat gereja, janda kaum ningrat yang kaya raya, gadis-gadis yang berlibur dari sekolah-sekolah mahal, sampai dengan para pensiunan jenderal. Siapa yang mengira di tempat seperti itu ada kejahatan yang mengancam? Siapa yang mengira bahwa di antara orang-orang itu ada yang tidak mengenakan identitas aslinya? Hotel Bertram penuh misteri tak terduga. Tapi, bagi Jane Marple, tak ada yang dapat disembunyikan dari pandangannya yang tajam. Kesenangannya mengamati segala sesuatu yang terjadi di sekelilingnya ternyata secara tidak langsung membantu Inspektur Kepala Davy dalam memecahkan misteri di Hotel Bertram ini.

Miss Marple si trova a Londra presso il Bertram Hotel un elegante albergo. Il suo spirito di osservazione la porta a notare alcuni fatti strani che poi si rivelano importanti nell'indagine che Scotland Yard sta conducendo su alcune grosse rapine avvenute a Londra negli ultimi anni.

He had left instructions for her to investigate a crime after his death. The only problem was, he had failed to tell her who was involved or where and when the crime had been committed. It was most intriguing. Soon she is faced with a new crime—the ultimate crime—murder. It seems someone is adamant that past evils remained buried. . . .
