And then there were none - Agatha Christie


There were 10 people who were summoned to the Southern Island -  eight men and two women. And that includes Mr and Mrs Rogers, the domestic help appointed by Mr and Mrs Owen, their host and hostess. Much to their dismay, even after their one day stay in the huge mansion, their host and hostess did not turn up. Apprehension brewed when Mr and Mrs Rogers said that they are yet to see those who appointed them. Things starts getting murkier when they hear a grama - phone recording which accuse each one of them to deaths which it says occurred because of them. Whether any deaths are related to them, we will find out in the end. And things gets out of control when they start encountering death every day. Will anyone remain in the end? That's for you to find out.
Hmmm, well I like every bit of it except the end. There was suspense all through but the end

  4. Sorry the end was a let down for you - the stage version has Christie's alternate, more upbeat finish - it's the one used int he movie adaptations.
