Murder will out

 I've read a book written by Agatha Christie for the free voluntary reading project. Its title was: And Then There Were None. This was one of the best I have ever read. It contained a lot of mystery, excitement, thrill and unexpected turns.

The plot was extremely well-developed; nobody could turn out who was the murderer. The story starts with an introduction of eight different people, but one thing is common; they have the same destination called Soldier Island. However, when they arrive at that mysterious island, they cannot find their hosts, but the old butlers Mrs. and Mr. Rogers. What is more, other strange things appeared, there is a nursery rhyme on the wall about ten little soldiers who all die successively, and there are ten small, head-shaped sculptures on the table. Then after all, they all die in the same way as it was written in the poem.

Who was the killer? It was obvious that only one of them could have done it. Finally, we got to know, that it was Justice Wargrave (even his name is strange, isn't it?), the lunatic judge, who have arranged all of the murders including his own.
