Hello readers,
Today I'll be reviewing The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie. It is considered one of Christie's classics.
In the village of King's Abbot, news spreads quickly about the death of Mrs. Ferrars, who was a widow rumored to have murdered her husband. Mr. Roger Ackroyd, who was to marry Mrs. Ferrars is depressed and wants to find out why exactly she died, and invites Dr. Sheppard, his close friend to dinner...
However, that very evening, Roger Ackroyd is found dead in his study with a knife in his neck! Luckily, Hercule Poirot, the renowned detective is here to find out who the murderer is... But who could it be?
Could it be Ralph, Ackroyd's stepson, whom all the evidence points to? Could it be Flora Ackroyd, who was last to hear from Ackroyd?
Everybody seems like a suspect here, and everyone seems to have an alibi, too... So who could it be?
I read the book and it was impossible for me to figure out who the murderer was! This was truly an Agatha Christie whodunnit!
Agatha Christie is a famous British crime author. Some of her books are By the Pricking of My Thumbs, And Then There Were None, N or M?, A Murder is Announced, 3.50 From Paddington, etc.
Some other Hercule Poirot books are The ABC Murders, The Mysterious Affair at Styles and Murder on the Orient Express.
I really enjoyed this book and recommend it to ages 12 and above because it does have a slightly complex storyline which younger readers may not be able to follow.
