The moving finger by Agatha Christie

I don't understand what the title has to do with it, but it was a good book. Jerry and his sister go to the countryside to rest after he had a bad injury. Anonimous letters start going around, saying silly lies. At first they don't think much about it, and when a woman apparently commits suicide it is believed in the village that she did it because the letter she received probably contained a truth, this time, but when later her maid is clearly murdered things change, and it all becomes a much bigger thing. It is at this point that a woman goes to Jerry yelling that something must be done, that this story must end, and when Jerry asks her what exactly does she think could be done, she replies that she'll call an expert on that sort of things, an expert on human behavious... can you think of someone? :lol: Yes, she calls Miss Marple.
There's also a double love story in the book because both Jerry and his sister Joanna fell in love for someone in the village, and decided to stay and get married :-)
This was a good book, yes :-D
