The Herb of Death

Another interesting short story featuring Miss Marple from Dame Agatha Christie. It’s about a dinner party which takes a deadly turn when somebody poisons the guests. All of them became seriously ill but one, a young woman, died. The story of this earlier tragedy is related to a gathering of friends at which Miss Marple is present. From the sketchy information, can any of them deduce what happened? Or should we just just look to Miss Marple?
