And Then There Were None is Agatha Christie's best-selling novel and also one of the best-selling books of all time, and for a good reason. This mystery will leave you guessing until the very end. A group of ten seemingly random people from all backgrounds are invited to spend time on Indian Island in England, all under different pretexts. The real reason for their visit is to fulfill someone's sick sense of justice. All of the people are charged with killings from their past but were never convicted or had to undergo any legal proceedings. Stuck on the island with no way to leave, one by one the guests are killed off and the group realizes that the killer is one of them. But who among them is the twisted killer? Can they trust anyone? Or even themselves?
