THE ABC MURDERS - BOOK REVIEW



the ABC murders...

My god ! What a breathtakingly amazing book. I just finished reading it yesterday and it just blew my mind away !

This is a masterpiece even from Agatha Christie's standards! (and we all know just how brilliant an author Agatha Christie is! )

But enough of the chit-chat, you probably came here to read the book review ad not how it blew my mind away. So lets get started with the review of THE ABC MURDERS.


THE ABC MURDERS:-


Generally, in most of Agatha Christie's books, we see a murder being committed and then the murderer trying his best to hide each and every clue which can get him caught and tries his best to maintain a low profile and stay out of the list of suspects.

But guess what, this time Christie tried a new approach !

Because this time the murderer does not want to maintain a low profile but rather wants to make a splash in the public eye. He wants to make a reign of terror ! and guess what else, this time he has openly challenged our favorite detective Mr. Hercule Poirot to catch him.( can you believe his guts !!!).


Here is the intro to the story given at the back of the book:-


'Let us see, Mr. Clever Poirot, just how clever you can be.'

Murder is a very simple crime. But at the hands of a maniac, a serial killer, it becomes a very complicated business.

With the whole country in a state of panic, the killer is growing more confident with each successive execution, Mrs. Ascher in Andover, Betty Bernard in Bexhill, Sir Carmichael Clarke is Churston...

But laying a trail of deliberate clues to taunt the proud Hercule Poirot might just be his first mistake.



The book is absolutely abundant with great thrilling moments. With the murderer's madman-like traits and his insanity of randomly killing any person in an alphabetical order and Poirot's great mind doing its best to analyze every possible clue to catch this madman, oh man ! Just give it a chance, just read it once, and believe me, 

YOU ARE GONNA LOVE IT !!!
