And Then There Were None - Agatha Christie

Since I don’t read a lot of crime novels, I prefer to read the best ones and, if possible, the ones that are not too brutal. Agatha Christie is the best choice. And Then There Were None is a delightful novel, and I read it with enthusiasm and curiosity from start to finish. If a brilliant crime story set in a small island sounds fantastic to you too, you’ll love this.

And Then There Were None begins with ten unrelated people being invited to an island in Devon by a very wealthy man. The island is highly famous, so none of those invited to the island can decline the offer. Spending the summer on an island is very attractive to all of them. Even if they do not remember the person who invited them or did not know him at all. However, when deaths begin to take place one after another, this tiny island loses all its charm. Although I was thinking too hard to find the killer, I could not guess. Let’s see if you can! Enjoy!
