Agatha Christie

Ten strangers are invited to an isolated island under different pretenses, only to discover they have all been accused of past crimes. One by one, they begin to die in ways that mirror a mysterious nursery rhyme displayed in the house. Cut off from the outside world, the remaining guests realize the killer must be among them. As paranoia grows, the story builds into one of the most famous locked-room mystery setups ever written, where survival depends on uncovering the murderer before no one is left.
