Kymmenen toisilleen tuntematonta ihmistä on saanut salaperäisen kutsun illanviettoon. Syrjäisellä saarella on vain yksi talo, amerikkalaisen miljönäärin rakennuttama loistohuvila. Kutsut lähettänyt isäntä ei ilmestykään paikalle. Ruokailuhuoneen pöydälle asetellut kymmenen posliininukkea katoavat omituisesti yksi kerrallaan - aina silloin kun joku vieraista kuolee. Jäljelle jääneet pälyilevät toisiaan kauhuissaan.

Maailmanlaajuisesti yli 100 miljoonaa kappaletta myynyt Eikä yksikään pelastunut edustaa Agatha Christien kultakauden loisteliainta tuotantoa. Legendaarisen maineen saavuttaneessa kirjassaan Christie käsittelee suljetun paikan teemaa mestarillisesti ja tyrmää täysin lukijan kaikki arvailut.

Sencillo e intrigante, está bien. Los personajes no me han caído muy bien, pero es entretenido de leer.

My first Agatha and mystery

4 stars

I've never read any mysteries, so I thought I'd start with the best. Some reviews said this one was it. Of course, I'd heard of Christie.

I expected a great mystery, which this is. But I did not expect how great of a writer she was! The book bounces between the thoughts of 10 people right from the beginning. The repetition of their thoughts only helps to establish the setting. The rest of the book continues this way, bouncing between characters, revealing their fear and guilt. Each character different, yet in the same position. Artfully done.

I am so behind on bookclub, still catching up. I finished this before the main selection because I am a longterm Agatha Christie fan. I just love the style of her who-dunnits that keep you guessing until the last minute. It's not her best book, but it's full of suspense as soon as the murders begin. It could maybe have been streamlined to begin on the island, because the exposure to the ten characters of the story was a bit clunky and not that interesting.

Fast read, good book, would read again.
