Convite para a morte » 10 convidados para uma ilha, com algo do seu passado a esconder.
Quando chegam cedo se apercebem que foram vitimas de uma armadilha.
Como escapar? Aparentemente não há forma ... e a conclusão inevitavelmente aparece - o assassino é um deles!
Conforme vão morrendo um a um o mistério parece ser insolúvel .... mas não é e uma vez mais a conclusão é surpreendente!
Maravilhoso!

Gostava tanto desta colecção, dois livros pelo preço de um, duas histórias que nos conquistam.

Surpreendente! Do início ao fim uma sucessão de críticas à sociedade e de crimes nada fáceis de encontrar o culpado.

Um livro do qual só li a primeira história.
Há bastantes anos que já tinha lido este livro e recordava-me vagamente do desenrolar e culminar do mistério por isso optei por não ler
O primeiro titulo acho que descobri o criminiso antes do final.
Gostei bastante!
A Agatha Christie sempte actual!

This is the real deal: both stories so well written that every sentence drives your breathing, every coma controls the will of your heartbeat. True masterpieces of the suspense.
