In Murder Ahoy, Miss Marple attends the annual board of trustees meeting at the crime-filled St. Honore Home, a rehabilitation center for young criminals. During the meeting, one of the trustees, Captain Sydney De Courcy Rhumstone, suddenly collapses and dies. Miss Marple discovers a chemical substance on his person and suspects foul play, believing he was poisoned.

Determined to solve the mysterious death, Miss Marple becomes involved in the investigation. She gathers as much information as she can about Captain Rhumstone and learns that he had recently returned from a voyage on the cruise ship "Battledore." Believing that the answer to the murder lies within the ship, she decides to board it and search for clues.

As she embarks on the ship, Miss Marple encounters a wide range of eccentric characters including the head steward, Mr. Stringer, who seems to be hiding something, and the pompous Colonel Bantry. She also crosses paths with a group of rebellious and mischievous boys who were former residents of St. Honore Home.

Throughout her investigation on the ship, Miss Marple uncovers several suspicious activities and strange occurrences. She discovers hidden messages, eerie encounters, and even a secret room where forbidden items are kept. With her sharp wit and knowledge of human nature, she gradually uncovers a complex web of secrets, lies, and motives that may have led to Captain Rhumstone's murder.

With the help of her loyal friend, Inspector Craddock, and her ever-present knitting needles, Miss Marple pieces together the evidence and reveals the identity of the murderer. In a classic denouement, she gathers all the suspects together and dramatically exposes the culprit, explaining the intricate plan behind the poisoning.

Murder Ahoy combines elements of mystery, intrigue, and comedy as Miss Marple navigates the high seas to uncover the truth behind Captain Rhumstone's demise. Margaret Rutherford delivers a delightful performance as the persistent and astute amateur detective, leaving no stone unturned in her pursuit of justice.
