This is my favorite Miss Marple story so far. A friend of Miss Marple
is on a train and as another train passes by she can see in through the
windows to another cabin on this other train. What she sees terrifies
her; there is a man strangling a woman. The trains travel on their own
paths and she can no longer see into the other cabin, nor find out
anything more. The officials don’t believe her when she tells her story,
but Miss Marple does and proceeds to discover who the two people in the
other cabin were. The truth is reached after a winding course of
events; I very much liked this one would recommend it if you like
mysteries. One last note: you don’t need to read the Miss Marple series
in order, so feel free to start here or anywhere you choose.

Murder at the Vicarage or
A Caribbean Mystery, both in the Miss Marple series by Agatha Christie]
