And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie

Blurb submitted by Mara C.
And Then There Were None is fiction

When ten strangers receive invitations to a mysterious island, all under different pretexts, they are surprised to find that there is no host to be found. The small group is alone on the island, except for two servants in the large home who are also confused by the mysterious circumstances. Due to dangerous weather, they cannot be reached by boat, nor can they swim the wide distance to the mainland, leaving them helpless. Tensions only rise when they receive a gramophone recording explaining to them the true reason they were all brought to the island: they must all pay for their crimes. It becomes a race against time as they are murdered one by one in a fashion that, they realize, follows the poem "Ten Little Soldiers." They must try to figure out who the murderer is and stop them before the poem concludes, fearing those last words: "And Then There Were None."
