I love a good country house murder mystery.
Our narrator, Dr. James Sheppard’s discovery of his friend’s body leads to a plethora of suspects above and below stairs. The police are looking for the obvious suspect, Ackroyd’s missing stepson and in true Christie fashioned the culprit will be revealed by the little grey cells of M. Hercule Poirot.
Again Christie is shown to be ahead of her time again using plot devices that are commonplace today but coupled with her observations of human nature create these enduring classics.
