A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick
One of the most famous and beloved mysteries from the queen of suspense, Agatha Christie! More than 100 million copies sold and now a Lifetime TV movie.
Ten people, each with something to hide and something to fear, are invited to a isolated mansion on Indian Island by a host who, surprisingly, fails to appear. On the island they are cut off from everything but each other and the inescapable shadows of their own past lives. One by one, the guests share the darkest secrets of their wicked pasts. And one by one, they die...
Which among them is the killer and will any of them survive?

"What Agatha Christie taught me was all about the delicate placement of the red herring. She was the ultimate genius behind 'by indirections shall we find directions out.' "--Elizabeth George, New York Times bestselling author of the Inspector Lynley novels
"The whole thing is utterly impossible and utterly fascinating. It is the most baffling mystery Agatha Christie has ever written."--New York Times
"One of the most ingenious thrillers in many a day."--Time magazine
"There is no cheating; the reader is just bamboozled in a straightforward way from first to last....The most colossal achievement of a colossal career. The book must rank with Mrs. Christie's previous best--on the top notch of detection."--New Statesman (UK)
"The most astonishingly impudent, ingenious and altogether successful mystery story since The Murder of Roger Ackroyd."--Daily Herald (UK)
"One of the very best, most genuinely bewildering Christies."--The Observer (UK)
Ten strangers, apparently with little in common, are lured to a mansion on an island off the coast of Devon by the mysterious U.N. Owen.
