And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie :: Then There Were None

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie The author  Agatha Christie was born in 1890 in Torquay in England.  Her father was called Frederick Miller so she was born as Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller.  She was educated at home and studied singing and piano in Paris.  In 1914 she married Archibald Christie, but then World War I had broken out.  Agatha worked as a nurse in a Red Cross infirmary in Torquay at that time and that experience was useful later on. The book  I recently read a mystery book by the cook of And Then They Were None by Agatha Christie.  I read this book because a lot of people that read Agatha Christies books recommended them to me and because I like mystery stories.  iodine of the mysteries to this book was, of course, who killed all of the innocent people.  Another mystery was that every time another person was killed a little Indian figure would disappear from the edges of a serving plate. SUMMARY Ten people are invited t o an island, called Indian Island, by letters that were signed by people they had met before.  When they got to the island, they found out that their host, U.N.Owen, had not arrived yet.  At dinner, they heard a voice, accusing each of them of a murder, which they were all guilty of.  After one of them is killed, according to the first verse of a poem that is border above each of their beds called Ten Little Indians, they figure out that the murderer is one of them As more people are killed off, one by one, the theme narrows the suspect list down, until only one is left alive but she figured that she would never get off the island anyway, and she hung herself from the ceiling by putting a noose  around her neck and kicking the chair away on which she was standing, but she was not the  killer. SETTING  In And Then There Where None by Agatha Christie, they didnt say when it took place, but I wouldnt be surprised that it was in the 1900s because thats when she wrote it.  It was on an island in the middle of the sea.  You couldnt visit any other land that surrounded it because it was really in the middle of nowhere  The general atmosphere was dark because there was a lot of trees and the ocean was nice but cold.
