“And Then There Were None” is a mystery novel by Agatha Christie, first published in 1939. The story follows a group of ten strangers who are invited to a remote island under different pretexts. Once they arrive, they are cut off from the mainland and find themselves accused of various crimes.
The novel opens with the ten strangers arriving on the island, each unaware of the others’ true identities. They are greeted by a recorded message accusing each of them of committing murder and escaping justice. As the guests settle in, they realize that they have been lured to the island under false pretenses and that they are all suspects in a series of unsolved crimes.
As the guests begin to die one by one in mysterious circumstances, it becomes clear that the killer is among them. Paranoia and suspicion grip the group as they try to uncover the identity of the murderer while also coming to terms with their own guilt over past crimes.
As the body count rises, the remaining guests race against time to uncover the truth before they are all killed. In a dramatic conclusion, the killer’s identity is revealed, and the survivors are left to grapple with the consequences of their actions.
“And Then There Were None” is widely regarded as one of Agatha Christie’s greatest works, known for its clever plotting, suspenseful atmosphere, and surprising twist ending. The novel has been adapted numerous times for film, television, and stage, cementing its status as a classic of the mystery genre.
