It all hinges on some repressed memory snippets and flashbacks.

Gwenda and her husband have moved to a country home in Britain. She grew up in New Zealand and is surprised that she remembers some of the sights in and around her new British home. Well, it turns out she was born and lived in Britain but was sent to New Zealand to live following a family tragedy. But what exactly that family tragedy was and why she was sent away, she has no idea and Miss Marple offers her help. But someone does NOT want the past to be dug up and this could mean danger for Gwenda.

I thought this was a weaker episode of the Miss Marple shows considering so much was told through conversations and flashbacks...an awful lot of it. This tended to make for a more passive episode experience. Still, it was interesting and is worth seeing...as are all the Marple shows.

Agatha Christie originally entitled the manuscript for this novel "Murder in Retrospect." However, in 1942 Dodd, Mead Co. published Christie's novel "Five Little Pigs" in the U.S. with the title "Murder in Retrospect" (it retained its original title in the U.K. publication). She then renamed the story "Cover Her Face" but had to change it yet again, when P.D. James published her début novel in 1962 with that title. The novel itself was written around 1940 as her last novel featuring Miss Marple (around the same time that she was writing "Curtain" which was the last Hercule Poirot); it was published in 1976 after her death.

While Miss Marple is chatting with the gardener and using the sprayer to kill the bugs, she generously sprays the top of the wall where the gardener's coffee cup is resting. A few moments later he drinks from it, but apparently suffers no ill effects.

Gwenda Reed: Why didn't *we* think of that?
Miss Jane Marple: Because you believed what he told you. It's very dangerous to believe people - I haven't for years.
