The murder of Roger Ackroyd
In the quiet, gossipy village of King's Abbot, secrets are the currency of choice. But when a wealthy widow suddenly dies and her rumored fiancé, the affluent Roger Ackroyd, is found stabbed to death in his locked study, the village's whispered rumors turn into a chilling reality.
As the local police flounder in a sea of perplexing clues-a missing nephew, a mysterious stranger in the night, and a beautiful Moroccan dagger-it becomes clear that this is no ordinary murder. Enter Hercule Poirot, a brilliant and eccentric retired detective who recently moved next door to cultivate vegetable marrows. Reluctantly drawn into the tangled web of blackmail and deceit, Poirot must peer behind the polite masks of Ackroyd's household.
Written by James Harvey, The murder of Roger Ackroyd is a masterpiece of misdirection and suspense. Every character has a motive. Every alibi is paper-thin. Step into the study, examine the evidence, and prepare for one of the most astonishing twists in the history of detective fiction.
