false<![CDATA[The Murder of Roger Ackroyd]]>1632886Considered to be one of Agatha Christie's most controversial mysteries, <i>The Murder of Roger Ackroyd</i> breaks all the rules of traditional mystery writing.
The peaceful English village of King's Abbot was stunned. First, the attractive widows Ferrars died from an overdose of veronal. Not twenty-four house later, Roger Ackroyd – the man she had planned to marry – was murdered. It was a baffling, complex case involving blackmail, suicide, and violent death, a cast that taxed Hercule Poirot's "little grey cells" before he reached one of the most startling conclusions of his fabled career.1073110book1926The Murder of Roger Ackroydtotal:4976|5:1627|4:1827|3:1275|2:223|1:24|497619738627842353falsefalseMon Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008Mon Oct 13 01:29:38 -0700 2008Tue Dec 02 02:34:14 -0800 2008

A dear friend of mine is no fan of Agatha Christie (1890-1976). He and I are both delighted by Dorothy Sayers (1893-1957) and her creation Lord Peter Wimsey. We have discuss...more...]]>

Ackroyd is my favorite of them all. A truly twisted denouement of the plot stirred controversy and earned this book a well-deserved outstanding reputation. Although I've read <Ackroyd> at least 12 times over the la...more...]]>
