A Caribbean Mystery by Agatha Christie

Miss Marple is on a dream vacation in an idyllic setting. Along with her are the resort owners, a young and very-much-in-love couple, there are two couples visiting the resort who seem like great friends, and a smattering of people her own age including a very ugly major and the very rich Jason Rafiel. 
But there is an ugliness beneath the surface and it comes out when the ugly major dies. He told a lot of very bad stories but that didn't mean he should be murdered. Nor should the maid who noticed something strange. 
Christie is still at the height of her game here when it comes to creating characters. The mystery is not very fairly clued but it is an interesting ending either way.
