Dame Agatha Mary Clarissa Christie, Lady Mallowan was an English writer. She is known for her 66 detective novels and 14 short story collections, particularly those revolving around her fictional detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. Christie's dedication to crafting the perfect plot saw her dubbed the Queen of Crime and earned her a place in literary history. Nemesis was first published in the UK by the Collins Crime Club in November and in the US by Dodd, Mead and Company later in the same year. It was the last Miss Marple novel the author wrote, although Sleeping Murder was the last Christie novel to be published. Miss Marple first encounters Jason Rafiel in A Caribbean Mystery, where they solve a mystery. Miss Marple receives communications from him, sent posthumously, setting up the plot of this novel. Miss Marple met the millionaire Jason Rafiel on her trip to the Caribbean and, after reading of his death, is astounded to receive a message from beyond the grave asking her to look into an unspecified injustice. After receiving directions to join a group touring stately homes and gardens, Miss Marple begins to identify the crime that Rafiel wants her to look into but it seems that others on the tour are also interested in the same events. When one of her fellow tourists is crushed by a boulder, it seems that Miss Marple is on the right track but that someone is determined to ensure that the past remains a secret.
