# Miss Violet Marsh — Poirot Investigates character guide

> Miss Violet Marsh in Poirot Investigates by Agatha Christie.

**Role:** supporting

**Also known as:** Miss Marsh, Miss Violet, Violet Marsh

**First appearance:** 0010-the-case-of-the-missing-will

## Snapshot

A tall, businesslike young woman who arrives at Poirot's door to contest a will that seems designed to cheat her out of everything.

## Who they are

Violet Marsh dresses plainly but neatly and carries herself with the assurance of someone used to being taken seriously, which makes her uncle's final testament all the more galling. The will leaves her a puzzle rather than a fortune, and she comes to Poirot not as a supplicant but as a client with a case to argue. Her steadiness gives the mystery its spine, since the question of whether she can outthink a dead man's joke is the question the story asks.
