Actually highly intruiging and a page turner.
I guess I just didn't appreciate how the characters were really oblivious to who was the murderer. And no spoilers here, but I feel like they should've stopped suspecting each other or at least a few people should've been acquitted after some certain 'incidents' occurred.
Anyhow, Christie definitely knows how to make her settings atmospheric. This is the first novel of hers I started out with and one of the few mysteries I've read, its definitely an easy starting point, and I look forward to more of her works.

soulsbooks23's review against another edition

Este es el segundo libro que leo de esta autora y he de decir que ambos han tenido esa habilidad de atraparte. Tenemos la historia de 10 personas que han sido invitados a la isla del Negro, y ahí empiezan a suceder cosas extrañas.
Este thriller me gustó mucho, y como se iban desenvolviendo todo debido a una canción me gustó mucho más. A pesar de que no pudimos conocer más allá a las 10 personas, no sentí ningún remordimiento por lo hechos que iban sucediendo.
Este libro es bastante corto, ideal si tienes bloqueo lector, la prosa de la autora es bastante simple lo que hace que pases las páginas como si nada. Esperando leer de nuevo a esta autora.

I remember loving this book in high school. 15 years later and it is evident my taste in books has changed. I found this rather boring and forced myself to finish it.

While the events of the book were predictable from the beginning, the reveal at the end is well thought-out.
