I was so blessed to receive an electronic copy of this new release edition. The final chapter is sealed so you have to try and solve the clues to find out whodunit.

I love to try and solve the mystery before I reach the end of a book but this one was so cleverly plotted I didn't get it right. Agatha Christie is the Queen of crime and this is an absolute masterpiece.

Thank you Harper Fiction and Netgalley for providing the ARC

There is a very good reason why Agatha Christie is so frequently referred to as the Queen of Crime, and "And Then There Were None" is the perfect example.
The premise of this timeless novel has been used so many times - the isolated location, the separated guests (or victims to be accurate), the secrets and the series of murders.
From the opening paragraph, Christie has brilliantly set the scene and as we follow a series of murders to and unbelievable conclusion.
It's so wonder, that even after 50 years, this book remains a blueprint for crime writing. And this latest edition adds to the mystery with a QR code (digital edition) or letter (physical edition), contains the final solution.

I’m fairly new to reading Agatha Christie, I’m obsessed with crime novels but was always really hesitant to read Agatha Christie. This novel has made me a Christie fan, I really enjoyed how the book is set out and how the characters developed. I really liked that you had to use the clues to crack the case and the answer is sealed in an envelope at the end, so no spoilers. I totally got it wrong, but I loved that I did as it made me go back over and look at where I had gone wrong.

This is my first Agatha Christie book and no wonder she is such an influential author. I was completely stumped. I love the quirk of sealing/ not including the last chapter revealing the killer, it was so much fun. I devoured this book in a day, loved it.

I've lost count of how many times I have read this mystery thriller. It never loses its charm and, indeed, one can never tire of reading and re-reading the entire works of the Queen of Crime.
To say the plot and the novel's structure is innovative is truly an understatement. I always thought that Dame Agatha would have to break the rules of The Detection Club to pull off the denouement - but that was before I read it for the very first time. There's no cheating here. Just sheer literary brilliance.
This splendid new hardback edition is sumptuously beautiful and is an essential addition to everyone's Agatha Christie collection.

Always a pleasure to read an Agatha Christie book and this one is her most famous one. I loved finding all the clues and discovering the culprit. A timeless classic. My thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

Sorry but I think I'm an outlier here. 2.5 stars rounded up.

While I appreciate the clever plot and what Christie has done for the genre, this book unfortunately wasn't for me. The characters all kind of blended into one and I wasn't emotionally connected to the story. Every death felt like it was written as "they walked into the room and someone was dead" and quickly moved on. I wasn't as gripped as I was hoping I'd be.

I believe the print version has the final chapter in an envelope which should only be opened once you have made your guess as to who the killer is. This doesn't work quite as well with an e-copy but it's a great idea and I loved it.

I definitely don't think this is a bad book, it's just not for me.

Loved reading this book, was a little difficult trying to remember who was who at the beginning of the book, but got easier! I absolutely love the fact that you had to guess who you thought was the murderer before you got the last chapter explaining it all and how it was done! Not an author I would usually read but must say I thoroughly enjoyed it!

A wonderful who done it with a twist you choose who you think did it and the final chapter is emailed to you.
Very clever and leaves you wondering what you missed.

Agatha will always be the queen of mysteries!!now I see writers name her as their inspiration when they first get published, everything we watch or read has her influence.

It’s the perfect whodunnit, 10 strangers trapped on an island who, one by one, are murdered. There is nobody else on the island, so the killer is one of them or is there another? The strangers have all gotten away with crime or actions so have they brought it on themselves?

This story has tension and suspense, it’s a great read!

Having first read this book about maybe 40 years ago I was surprised that when re -reading it again now, it still felt fresh and clever- and I still got the whodunnit wrong - no wonder Agatha Christie is considered the Queen of crime!
Locked room or isolated location books whilst always around, seem to have become very popular again recently, but Ms Christie certainly helped lead the way!
I particularly enjoyed this edition where a QR code is provided to download the final chapter and the answer
Thank you to netgalley and Harper Collins for an advance copy of this book

I don't feel 5* is enough for this masterpiece. This is a blueprint for how crime thrillers should be written.

It is the perfect whodunit. 10 strangers trapped on an island who, one by one, are murdered. There is nobody else on the island, so the killer must be amongst them. The strangers have all gotten away with crime or actions that the killer believes they need punishing for.

This story has tension, suspense, and fantastically written characters. Whoever says Agatha Christie writes cosy crime has never read this book. The final chapter is jaw dropping leaving you wanting to reread to see how you missed the clues.

More of a how they dunnit than who.
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was very interesting to read something that captured the attitudes of the time in what was a very class conscious bygone age. I tried hard to follow the evidence, even making a few notes. Each time I thought I'd spotted something that was a breakthrough clue to the murderer, that person was the next one to die, or else my suspect couldn't have been responsible.
The book has a rapid pace, with drama on almost every page. It took me longer to read than normally for something of this length because I frequently stopped to go back to previous pages to try to unravel the mystery at each new disclosure.
This new edition tells a tale where none of the cast is above suspicion and is a real gem. Don't miss it.

Called the greatest murder mystery written, this book does not disappoint. It is readable, believable and incredibly carefully put together. The decision to republish it with the final chapter missing is great, spoiled only by the presence of websites like Wikipedia which will give the game away. The solution once known is obvious, a person who has had a career in upholding and dispensing justice, but hindsight is a wonderful th8nk. In their opinion, all of the 10 deserved to face justice making this an exercise in vigilante killing.. read it! It’s great!

Earlier this year I saw the stage version of 'And Then There Were None' so it was a pleasure to read this 'Ultimate Mystery Addition '. I have been reading Agatha Christie books for 50 years now and never tire of them. The volume of sales of the Queen of Crimes books happens for a reason. Perhaps her best book with its clever plot and dramatic ending. Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the chance to ARC this book.

The invites have been sent out and ten guests arrived on an island off the coast of Devon. They have been invited by an unknown millionaire. The host is nowhere to be found but what is found is a framed nursery rhyme in all the guests’ rooms. A nursery rhyme which hints at their fate...

This masterpiece by Agatha Christie has stood the test of time. She was a genius at writing mystery. With And Then There Were None she set the perfect stage: an isolated island, guests with things in their past they want to keep secret, and tension galore. This book has that trapped feeling that I love in books. In addition to tension, And Then There Were None also has secrets, dread, danger, and a great mystery.

As the guest meet their fate, readers get the chance to do their own detective work to figure out whodunit. That is if you have not already read the book, seen the play, or watched the movie! After all, Agatha Christie is considered to be one of the most read authors of all time.

This proved to be a fast and thrilling read which had me wanting to pick up another book by Agatha Christie right away!

must confess I have read very little by Agatha Christie. Yes, I know this is most unusual considering how much I love a good whodunnit or locked room mystery. I have no explanation for this; I just never got around to reading them.
Anyway, you can probably imagine my delight when I received this digital ARC of this special edition to read and review. Many thanks HarperCollins UK and Netgalley.

To say that I enjoyed this classic whodunnit would be an understatement. I was totally immersed in it, and with good reason. You see, the final chapter was missing. When I got to the end, I had to submit who I thought the killer was. Then, and only then, would I receive the final chapter. Brilliant, no?
I relished the idea of exercising my little grey cells. Alas, I am no Poirot, nor Miss Marple. I fear Inspector Clousseau would have made the correct deductions.
The fun was in the trying though, and if I had read this before, it wouldn't have been half as much fun.
I will definitely be adding more Agatha Christie titles to my reading list, but I'm not sure they will top this.
The special collector's edition will be available on 10/10/2024. Thanks again to HarperCollins UK and Netgalley for the digital ARC.

Definitely one of Agatha Christie’s best novels, And Then There Were None is still fresh and original and will appeal to old and new Christie aficionados alike.
Set on an island off the Devon coast (Burgh Island in reality), ten strangers are invited to stay only for them to start dying one by one. Who is doing this, is it accidental or is it murder? This story is so beautifully crafted that it seems impossible to discover the reasoning behind these fatalities.
This is such a beautiful new edition from Harper Collins with the solution to the puzzle concealed in an envelope at the back of the book. I am sure this will continue to intrigue it’s readers for many generations to come.

An absolute classic murder mystery that has inspired a myriad of locked room imitations. Ten strangers are invited to an island cut off from the mainland and one by one they start dying… the final death can’t be a suicide but who is the killer? Ingenious making you wait to request the final piece of the puzzle!

Danger and death on an island. Twelve disparate people are invited for a holiday on an island off the Devon coast, seemingly from people they have known. All seem to have a secret of problem in their past. Gradually they get to know each other but what’s with the toy soldiers and why have these people been brought together on the island? Creepy but enjoyable.
