    THE MURDER OF ROGER ACKROYD

    BY AGATHA CHRISTIE

    Christie earned a reputation as the “queen of crime” through her 66 acclaimed detective novels. In Ackroyd, one of her first books to feature detective Hercule Poirot, the sleuth sets out to solve the mystery of who murdered his friend. But Poirot isn’t the reader’s guide to this story—it’s James Sheppard, a local doctor helping Poirot, who serves as the book’s narrator. Through Sheppard’s perspective, Christie manipulates and outwits the reader, building to an ending that feels earned in 2023 and was utterly shocking when the novel came out in 1926.
