Summary: Completely Unique Christie
Review: This is a book a Christie fan must read, regardless of whether he has read "The Murder of Roger Ackroyd."It's completely different from her other books. It gave me nightmares.

Summary: A Touch of Evil
Review: This is a Christie mystery without one of her 3 main detectives (Poirot, Miss Marple, and Tommy & Tuppence). That, in itself, is not unusual, but it differs from her other books dramatically as well. Even ignoring the basic structural differences, it seems to me that usually her murderers are relatively straightforward in their psychologies. In this one, however, she touches on evil of a more absolute nature. I have searched and failed to find the poem that I memorized--which I'm pretty sure was in this book. It goes:
Every night and every morn, some to misery are born.
Every morn and every night, some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to sweet delight, some are born to endless night.
I think it gives the essence of what the book is trying to say--far beyond being a mystery novel. If you want to see Christie in more serious, perhaps enigmatic, statement, read the book. Don't expect the usual Christie.

Summary: DOES THIS REMIND YOU OF.......
Review: This is a good book IF you haven't read The Murder of Roger Ackroyd. If you haven't read The Murder of RA, then by all means try this one out and see the pyschological thrill and amazing ending...but I would recommend The Murder of RA first!!!! END

Summary: Easily Christie's Best ever!!
Review: This one was the 8th Book of her's that I have read, and the finest of them all! No doubt that if you are a beginner reader of Christie's, this book will get you hooked on them for life!! I still cannot believe how cleverly written this is with the most unexpected ending that will leave you thinking about it for days! And after you own it, you will want to read it over and over again!
