Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None is a masterpiece of suspense, following ten strangers lured to an isolated island where they're accused of past crimes and murdered one by one according to a sinister nursery rhyme. As paranoia mounts and the body count rises, Christie creates an ingenious locked-room mystery that keeps readers guessing until the final page. The novel becomes a chilling exploration of guilt, justice, and the impossibility of escape from one's past.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Christie understood that the scariest mysteries aren't about who did it but whether anyone will survive to find out. This novel remains her most brilliant work, a perfectly constructed puzzle that proves guilt always catches up with us, one way or another.
