A skilled Sir Louis Matheson Library, storyteller preys on our hopes and fears, providing all manner of excitement in a compelling Clayton campus, Monash University, narrative seemingly made for the sleepless small hours of the morning. Television and film Wellington Road, Clayton take it as their stock in trade, with producers constantly looking for new angles, new locations and, above all, new villains. It is the same with books. This is what makes this Curator: Richard Overell Rare Books exhibition so interesting, particularly as crime in its myriad cultural forms feeds Assistant Curator: Stephen Herrin off itself. Web Design: Rosemary Miller Gangsters and standover men follow the Borsalino screen heroes of a previous generation. Thank you to John Loder, author of We see the tilt of homage to the supreme lady novelist of the genre, Agatha Christie, in the Australian crime fiction: a bibliography, television murder mystery set in the totally unreal English village of Midsomer. Philip 1857-1993 for speaking at the exhibition Marlowe, Raymond Chandler’s hard-boiled private detective, reappears in every imaginable opening. post-modern twist of gender, location and identity. Without crime our contemporary fiction – and our writers – would be the poorer. Note: the title of this exhibition comes from an Agatha Christie novel (item 41).

This particular whodunit is about a young woman found dead in Colonel Bantry’s library. There are many twists and turns to the plot. The questions below hardly cover the story, but they are a start. They cover chapters 8 to 17 (pages 90 to 207). Chapter 8 1. Who is Sir Henry Clithering? Why does Conway Jefferson want his help? 2. Who does Sir Henry recommend as sleuth? 3. Why does Miss Marple believe Conway Jefferson is interested in Ruby Keene? What does Miss Marple believe Conway’s son-in-law and daughter-in-law will soon want to do? 4. Sir Henry wonders why anyone would want to strangle Ruby and leave her in the Bantry’s library OR take her there and strangle her. Why does Miss Marple believe this was done? Chapter 9 5. Why don’t Mark Gaskell and Adelaide Jefferson believe they have a right to object to Conway’s giving Ruby all that money? Do they like Ruby? 6. What is their opinion of Josephine Turner, whom they call Josie? 7. Who is Hugo McLean? Who is William Dobbin? 8. Does Miss Marple like Mark? Does she trust him? 9. What souvenir does young Peter Carmody keep in a matchbox? Do you believe it is important to the investigation? Why? 10. Who does Miss Marple believe the body in the burned-out car is?
