About this eBook

Agatha Christie’s disturbing 1960s mystery thriller, reissued with a striking cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers.

Gipsy’s Acre was a truly beautiful upland site with views out to sea – and in Michael Rogers it stirred a child-like fantasy.

There, amongst the dark fir trees, he planned to build a house, find a girl and live happily ever after.

Yet, as he left the village, a shadow of menace hung over the land. For this was the place where accidents happened. Perhaps Michael should have heeded the locals’ warnings: ‘There’s no luck for them as meddles with Gipsy’s Acre.’

Michael Rogers is a man who is about to learn the true meaning of the old saying ‘In my end is my beginning...’

I really didn't understand the book much as I couldn't connect with the narrator clearly. Wasn't so gripping like other books. Moreover, the actual plot of the story is somewhere close to the end and the ending wasn't that good. Didn't live up to the expectations.

SPOILER ALERT ------------------------- This is the first of Agatha Christie's books I've read that is narrated by the murderer, although that is only revealed in the penultimate chapter. I didn't like that twist. It is as well written and gripping as any of her other works, but I didn't like that plot line.

I was really bored at the beginning but then the book became interesting and more interesting. The cliffhanger at the end is totally unexpected. Must read.

She is known throughout the world as the Queen of Crime. Her books have sold over a billion copies in the English language and another billion in over 100 foreign countries. She is the author of 80 crime novels and short story collections, 19 plays, and six novels under the name of Mary Westmacott.
