A classic Agatha Christie short story, available individually for the first time as an ebook. Bunch, engrossed in her flower arrangements for the church is rather dully placing the chrysanthemums when she sees a man crumpled over on the chancel steps, dying. The man can only utter one word, 'Sanctuary'. Nothing can be done, and his final words 'please, please' can't help anyone at the vicarage to understand what has happened. But, when his relatives arrive very promptly to pick up his possessions Bunch can't get the word Sanctuary out of her head and she knows just who to turn to, her godmother, Miss Marple. What Bunch and Miss Marple discover is rather more exotic and exciting than can ever be expected to happen in a sleepy village like Chipping Cleghorn, who is this man and what does Sanctuary mean?
