The A.B.C. Murders
The A.B.C. Murders is a work of detective fiction by Agatha Christie, featuring her characters Hercule Poirot, Arthur Hastings and Chief Inspector Japp, as they contend with a series of killings by a mysterious murderer known only as “A.B.C.”
Murder on the Orient Express
Robert Barnard: “The best of the railway stories. The Orient Express, snowed up in Yugoslavia, provides the ideal ‘closed’ set-up for a classic-style exercise in detection, as well as an excuse for an international cast-list. Contains my favourite line in all Christie: ‘Poor creature, she’s a Swede.’ Impeccably clued, with a clever use of the Cyrillic script.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
Poirot retires to a village near the home of a friend he met in London, Roger Ackroyd, who agrees to keep him anonymous, as he pursues his retirement project of perfecting vegetable marrows. He is not long at this pursuit when his friend is murdered. Ackroyd’s niece calls Poirot in to ensure that the guilt does not fall on Ackroyd’s son; Poirot promises to find the truth, which she accepts.
