Agatha Christie's world-famous mystery thriller, reissued with a striking new cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers. Ten strangers, apparently with little in common, are lured to an island mansion off the coast of Devon by the mysterious U.N.Owen. Over dinner, a record begins to play, and the voice of an unseen host accuses each person of hiding a guilty secret. That evening, former reckless driver Tony Marston is found murdered by a deadly dose of cyanide. The tension escalates as the survivors realise the killer is not only among them but is preparing to strike again! and again!

About the Author:

Norman Barrs has over 17 Broadway shows to his credit, as well as a lengthy residence with the famed Dublin Gate Theater.

From AudioFile:

Ten people come to an island. None of them will leave alive. One of the most beloved and respected stories in all of crime fiction is elegantly read by Norman Barrs, whose sophisticated British tones are perfect for the famous writer. Although Christie is known for her plots more than her characterizations, Barrs manages to bring all ten characters to their short lives with subtle changes of tone and pitch. He also lends just the right emotional notes of outrage and fear to the many narrative passages. This reading is especially recommended for those who know only the watered-down Hollywood version of the tale. S.F. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
