“The ABC Murders” is a testament to Christie's brilliance in crafting innovative mysteries. The elegance and sheer audacity of its central conceit makes the novel as enthralling today as it was when it was first published.
There's a serial killer on the loose. His macabre calling card? To leave the ABC Railway Guide beside each victim's body. Hercule Poirot is intrigued by this murderer's mind. Something just doesn't ring true about a psychopath who lays his clues so carefully.
