The Murder of Roger Ackroyd

"Truth, however ugly in itself, is always curious and beautiful to seekers after it."

In the quiet village of King's Abbot, a wealthy widower named Roger Ackroyd is found stabbed to death in his study. The door is locked from the inside, the window is open, and a dictaphone is still playing. Ackroyd knew too much—he had just learned that the woman he loved had been blackmailed before her suicide. Now, he has taken the secret of her blackmailer to the grave.

The Master at Work: Hercule Poirot has retired to the village to grow vegetable marrows, but the call of justice is too strong. Enlisting the help of his new neighbor, the local physician Dr. James Sheppard, Poirot begins to sift through a household of suspects, each with a motive to kill. From a debt-ridden stepson to a secretive parlor maid, everyone has something to hide, but only one is a murderer.
