“When the sea goes down, there will come from the mainland boats and men. And they will find ten dead bodies and an unsolved problem on Soldier Island."

.
This is probably one of the most intense crime novels ever and an almost unsolvable mystery. This was the most difficult book that Agatha Christie wrote and once you read it, you would realize why.
The premise, (spoilers) I am sure you know, is this: ten people end up cut off from the world on a tiny island. One of them is the culprit or the mastermind behind this genius killing, and people keep dying as in the nursery rhyme of 'Ten little soldiers'. Every person on the island has a secret and is guilty of a murder. It's the kind of murder where law is helpless. Nothing can be proven. This is why they found themselves on that island, at the mercy of a 'Jigsaw' madman who decided to take the law into his own hands with the belief that justice must be done.

This is a story where the mystery just doesn't let you put the book down. The intricacies with which the crimes are committed exactly according to the poem is dangerously dazzling. And One of the biggest question that it leaves us with is- "Who has the right to decide what justice is? And who gets to decide what the right punishment is?"

Brilliantly written by Agatha Christie, this is a read i would recommend anyone who wants to begin with mystery novels or is already a fan of detective stories!
.
Happy reading!
