By Agatha Christie
From acclaimed mystery author Agatha Christie, And Then There Were None is a mastery of tension. A quirky millionaire hosts a gathering of eight strangers on a private island off of the English coast. When the guests arrive, the elusive host is nowhere to be found. In his place, however, is the accusation of murder upon each of the guests.
As panic sets in, those brought to the island begin to die one by one. Paranoia sets in and sense unravels as the body count mounts. It’s a classic whodunnit that has readers standing up and screaming, “What?!” until the very last page.
About:
Then There Was Nothing is a mystery novel by English writer Agatha Christie, which she called the most difficult of her books. It was first published in the United Kingdom by the Collins Crime Club on November 6, 1939, as Ten Little Niggers, after the counting children's rhyme and vocalist's song, which is a major element of the plot. An American edition was released in January 1940 with the title And Then There Were None taken from the song's last five words. All successive American editions and adaptations use this title, except for the Pocket Books paperbacks published between 1964 and 1986, which appeared under the title Ten Little Indians.
The book is the best-selling puzzle in the world, has sold over 100 million copies and is one of the best-selling books of all time. The novel is listed at number six among the bestselling titles (any language, including reference works).
