Top 10 Best Agatha Christie Books
Death on the Nile
The list of Agatha Christie best books wouldn`t be full without this story. It tells us about the Belgian detective Hercule Poirot who gets engaged in a murder story while touring along the Nile river during his weekend in Cairo. Alligators, pyramids and mystery murder make this book unforgettable.
And Then There Were None
Probably the most famous work of all Agatha Christie books and a really incredible story about mysterious murders. The original story name was Ten Little Niggers (because of the British blackface song) but in 1939 American editors reprinted and retitled the story as And Then There Were None.
A Murder is Announced
One of the best of Agatha Christie late stories was published in 1950 and tells us about famous Miss Marple (there is an opinion that Miss Marple is a prototype of the writer) who investigates an extraordinary crime that was announced in a local newspaper and became a surprise for a small English village.
The Hollow
Literary critics say that The Hollow is a perfect example of a "country house mystery." And there is no wonder, because Mrs. Christie was known for her mystery books. Here we again meet with our old friend Hercule Poirot, who gets involved in a series of strange murders.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
A fame of Agatha Christie mysteries is incontrovertible and moreover, she was known as a master of such storytelling. Reading this book, you can get acquainted with the already familiar detective Hercule Poirot, who investigates the death of Mrs. Ferrars and Roger Ackroyd with the help of Dr. James Sheppard.
Evil Under the Sun
We have already mentioned that Agatha Christie has written one of the best mystery books ever. And Evil Under the Sun was no exception. The book of 1941 and the movie of the same name of 1982 tell us about the death of actress Arlena Marshall.
Sad Cypress
Some people say that Sad Cypress is one of the top mystery books of all times. The book tells us the story of two young people Roddy Welman and Elinor Carlisle, where the last is suspected of the murder of her aunt Mrs. Welman and Marry Gerard (a girl who helped Mrs. Welman).
Death in the Clouds
We decided to end the list of the best Agatha Christie books with this novel. During the flight from Paris to Croydon one of the passengers – Madam Giselle – got murdered by the poisoned dart. Detective Hercule Poirot launched an investigation where everyone is suspected, even he.
