Book Description
The A.B.C. Murders is a fast-paced Hercule Poirot mystery in which the detective faces a killer who announces each crime in advance, signing the letters “A.B.C.” and striking victims in alphabetical order of their surnames and locations. As the murders escalate, Poirot must determine whether the pattern points to a methodical serial killer—or serves as a clever disguise for a more personal motive. The novel is celebrated for its ingenuity, suspense, and bold reworking of the classic detective formula.

 

About Author
Agatha Christie (1890–1976) was a British novelist and short-story writer, widely regarded as the greatest writer of detective fiction of all time. Born in Torquay, England, she began writing during the First World War while working as a nurse, an experience that informed her detailed knowledge of poisons. Christie created two of literature’s most famous detectives, Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple, and wrote 66 detective novels, 14 short story collections, and the world’s longest-running play, The Mousetrap. Known for her ingenious plots, misdirection, and surprise endings, her works have been translated into more languages than those of any other author except Shakespeare, securing her enduring global legacy.
