Grace's Review
And Then There Were None, the title, of this murder mystery, reminds the reader of fear and death. Ten people are invited to an island and none of them know each other and one among them is a murder who wants them all dead. A storm comes to the island leaving them all trapped with the killer, but which one is he. This story is a murder story so is does go into a little bit depth on how the people died. There are suicides in this book. The moral is focused on the fact that it might be alright if you kill some one to have true justice. There is also some drinking and language in the book. There is also a morbid tone throughout the book. I did enjoy it over all and it is still one of my favorite Agatha Christie books.
