And Then There Were None: Exclusive Edition - 2020

by Agatha Christie

Ten strangers are summoned to a remote island. All that the guests have in common is a wicked past they're unwilling to reveal and a secret that will seal their fate. For each has been marked for murder. As the weather turns and the group is cut off from the mainland, the bloodbath begins and one by one they are brutally murdered in accordance with the lines of a sinister nursery rhyme.

In writing the stage version of her most successful and darkest novels during the Second World War, Agatha Christie responded to the mood of the times by introducing a more positive ending. The play was a smash hit in the West End and on Broadway. The alternate version of the play's ending, drawn from the novel and using entirely Agatha Christie's own words, is now available in this updated edition

Reviews

Surprisingly good. I read the majority of this book in one day and I had no idea how it was all pulled off until the very end. Has definitely got me interested in reading more Agatha Christe.

Wow! Dame Christie was a very very clever lady. I've always admired her books but I'd never read this one before and it was a thrilling mystery with twists and turns from start to finish. I didn't guess the identity of the murderer until the last few pages of the epilogue.

Being my first Agatha Christie book, this definitely left me with a good impression of her writing. It kept me guessing the entire time, and in the end I was still wrong.

I really loved this book and would recommend this to almost anyone. There were a lot of twists and everything fits together so well even if you don't see it until the end. It's a book worth reading for a second time.
