of time.
The plot centers around a group of strangers who are invited to an isolated island off the coast
of Devon, England. As they arrive, they are greeted by their host, a mysterious man named Mr.
Owen, who informs them that they have been brought to the island to solve a crime. As the
story unfolds, the group realizes that they are being picked off one by one, according to the
lines of a children's nursery rhyme, "Ten Little Soldiers." With each death, the group becomes
more paranoid and distrustful of each other, as they try to figure out who among them is the
killer.

ending is particularly satisfying. Christie is a master at building suspense and keeping the reader
guessing, and this novel is no exception. Overall, this book is a must-read for fans of mystery

to her writing.
