Ten strangers are invited to a private island off the coast of England. On arrival they find that their mysterious host is not in attendance. Instead he has left a recording to be played after dinner, in which each is accused of having committed a murder in their past.

3/30/15 My first Agatha Christie book and I loved it! I honestly could not figure out who the "bad guy" was. I can't wait to read more of her books. ...more

This is a classic. 10 people are invited to an island for a variety of reasons but find that those reasons are false.

No boat returns to the island and a storm ensues. Before the day ends the first guest dies. In each room there is a copy of an old nursery rhyme ticking off the end of 10 soldiers. The island is called Soldier Island. Ori
