Helen Hayes stars in a trio of Agatha Christie whodunits. The riveting adaptation of the author's "Easy to Kill," "Murder Is Easy" (1982), focuses on a string of murders that rocks a quiet English village and the visiting American computer expert who attempts to use technology to catch the killer. Bill Bixby, Olivia de Havilland, Lesley-Anne Down and Jonathan Pryce also star. A leisurely vacation turns into "A Caribbean Mystery" (1983) for septuagenarian sleuth Miss Jane Marple (Hayes) when she must solve the murder of a retired British army officer. Maurice Evans, Barnard Hughes, Swoosie Kurtz also star. And, Hayes is back as Miss Marple in "Murder with Mirrors" (1985), coming to the aid of an old friend (Bette Davis) who thinks someone is trying to kill her for her ancestral estate. Leo McKern, John Mills co-star. All three films were directed by Claude Whatham.

Aging Major Palgrave, an idiosyncratic but charming mystery writer, reveals to Miss Jane Marple that one of the guests at a luxurious Caribbean resort they're staying at is a Bluebeard-type wife murderer. Unfortunately, the Major succumbs to an apparently accidental overdose of alcohol and blood pressure medication before revealing the killer's identity. When it's discovered that the medicine belonged to another guest and the revealing photograph the Major was carrying is missing, Miss Marple realizes that the serial killer has struck again and more murders will follow.
