Mrs Granby

In the short story Miss Marple Tells a Story, Mrs Granby is one of two women staying by themselves at the The Crown Hotel in Barnchester, at the time Mrs Rhodes was murdered. Miss Marple was particularly interested in women fitting such a profile because she thought they would be potential suspects.

The solicitor Mr Petherick described Mrs Granby as an Anglo-Indian widow. She had reddish hair rather untidily done, a sallow face, and was about fifty years of age. Her clothes were rather "picturesque", being made of native silks.
