Their host, an eccentric millionaire unknown to any of them, is nowhere to be found. All that the guests have in common is a wicked past they're unwilling to reveal - and a secret that will seal their fate. For each has been marked for murder, and one by one they begin to fall prey to an unseen hand. As the only people on the island, unable to leave and unable to call for help, they know that the only possible suspects are among their number. And only the dead are above suspicion. 3038872 book 12 1939 And Then There Were None total:16391|5:5993|4:6324|3:3418|2:558|1:102| 16391 66718 20108 1440 4 8 false false Tue Aug 21 06:10:07 -0700 2007 Thu Jul 05 22:39:59 -0700 2007 Sun Jul 22 19:21:09 -0700 2007
