Recuperating from a flying accident, Jerry Burton needs to take a break somewhere peaceful. He and his sister Joanna rent a house in the little village of Lymstock, where they know no one and hope to be able to relax. Their quiet life is shattered, however, by the arrival of an obscene anonymous letter accusing them of impropriety. Jerry refuses to take it seriously and throws it on the fire. But during a routine check-up with the local GP, Doctor Griffiths, he soon discovers that theirs is by no means the first unpleasant missive: a number of other village residents have been similarly harassed. Suspicion is rife, and matters are brought to a head by the suicide of one of the letters' recipients. With the whole village in a state of shock, the vicar's wife decides to invite down an old friend with considerable experience of the darker side of human nature. Can Miss Marple's arrival in Lymstock cast light on events? And can she discover the culprit before more deaths occur? One of Agatha Christie's own favorite novels is dramatized with a full cast including Clare Corbett and Nicholas Boulton.2 CDs. 1 hr 30 mins.

I'm a great Christie fan from way back, and having the books on CD is simply wonderful! Well read, thanks.
Some of the Audio BBC are quite good. However Moving Finger was just ok. It lacked the mood of the unabridged original. I was never quite sure of the extent of damage done to Jerry's legs.It failed to capture the atmoshpere of the original. Also the ending differed from the original to a certain extent. Some of these dramas are fairly well done. Moving Finger just was not in that category. Go for the unabridged audio or the novel.
