Mystery: The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie

Details

The peaceful English village of King’s Abbot is stunned. The widow Ferrars dies from an overdose of Veronal. Not twenty-four hours later, Roger Ackroyd—the man she had planned to marry—is murdered.
With a brilliant web of secrets, lies, and red herrings, Hercule Poirot, Christie’s legendary detective, must unravel the truth in one of his most perplexing cases.
It is a baffling case involving blackmail and death that taxes Hercule Poirot’s “little grey cells” before he reaches one of the most startling conclusions of his career.
Considered to be one of Agatha Christie's greatest and also, most controversial mysteries. 'The Murder Of Roger Ackroyd' breaks the rules of traditional mystery.
