Today I read a very interesting mystery novel. The title of the book is “And Then There Were None”, written by Agatha Christie. The story describes an unsolvable crime. Ten people are invited to an island known as the Soldier Island. According to the story, Soldier Island is full of mystery. It was originally owned by a wealthy man, who built a beautiful mansion on the island. However, the spouse of that wealthy man can’t withstand the ocean. Therefore, it was sold to an unknown person. No one knows what happens to the island now. Those ten people are excited because they are invited to the most hotly discussed island and can live in a high-class mansion. In each one’s room, they found a poem. Ever since they find the poem, people begin to die in the exact way the poem describes. The police had no clue how that is possible. Later, a letter is retrieved from the sea. The murderer reveals everything in the letter. The murderer kills nine other people on the island because they are people who committed crime but escaped the punishment of the law. I originally thought that the murderer is the doctor, but I was wrong. I didn’t even imagine the story will end like this. Agatha Christie was too brilliant.
