Agatha Christie is my favourite author and she is rightly known as the Queen of Crime. There has never been anyone who could plot and write like her. Don't make the mistake of associating Mrs. Christie with cosy mysteries, yes I do get a cosy, nostalgic feeling when I read her work but she writes dark people, doing dark things. This book is chilling, sometimes shocking and always gripping. When you start reading And Then There Will None you are very quickly absorbed and propelled to keep reading because you have to know what will happen next. The people on this Island are dying, one by one and the deaths are brutal and unrelenting. Will there be anyone left? You have to keep reading to find this out. It scared the life out of me and I LOVED IT!

One of my favourite Agatha Christie novels with a fun added twist for the new edition!

Having read And Then There Were None, it’s so clear to see where a lot of modern day thrillers took inspiration from but Christie’s mystery never gets old!

Ten guests were summoned to a little private island off the coast of Devon. Their host is unknown to all of them, and is also not found. All the guests have their own secrets they don’t want to share, and everyone present has been marked for murder. A famous nursery rhyme has been framed and hung in every room, and when they realize that there are murders occurring that are described in the rhyme, all hell breaks loose. Before the weekend is out, there will be no one left. Who is the host? And who will be left? Everyone around is a suspect.

My English teacher once recommended this book to me, and he was so right. This story is an absolute masterpiece. The plot was amazing, and I was on edge throughout the book. All the characters were great and developed well. The ending was shocking and so well done. This might even be my favourite Agatha Christie story I have read so far!
