Alice’s Books
It’s Agatha Christie for the newest generation of mystery readers.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, an annotated edition of Agatha Christie’s classic novel, remains as captivating today as it was when the Queen of Crime first published it in 1925.
The story unfolds in the quaint English village of King’s Abbot. The peace of the village is shattered by a suicide and then the murder of wealthy businessman Roger Ackroyd. Dr. James Sheppard, a respected country physician and the story’s narrator, investigates the crime. He is joined by his new neighbor, the retired Belgian detective Hercule Poirot.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is more than a murder mystery. The story explores family conflict, blackmail, drug addiction, a secret marriage, and a forced engagement. Long-buried secrets and past mistakes also come to light.
This annotated edition adds a new layer to the reading experience. It includes bonus material about the people, places, and items mentioned in the novel. Readers will discover pictures, recipes, definitions, and historical information that bring the story and its world to life.
