A prima donna soprano is commissioned to give a command performance at a country estate. It sets off a chain of tragic events – but are they accidents or an act of revenge?"
"In a quiet English village, a wealthy widow dies under suspicious circumstances—then, the very next night, a man who may have known the truth is found murdered in his study. Called in to make sense of the contradictions is the famously meticulous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, now living in retirement nearby. The facts seem straightforward until they don't: letters that arrive too late, conversations that mean two things at once, and timelines that refuse to sit still. As Poirot pulls gently at the seams of village respectability, every household reveals a private fear, a buried grievance, or a carefully managed lie. The closer he gets to the answer, the more the case becomes a test of perception itself—how stories are told, who controls them, and what people will do to keep their version of events intact. The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is a landmark classic mystery—tight, clever, and unforgettable—built around one of the genre's most audacious puzzles."

"Agatha Christie è riconosciuta come autrice di straordinari gialli ambientati in fascinose dimore di campagna o in paesi lontani. Eppure molti dei suoi romanzi e dei suoi racconti hanno come sfondo la città che per anni ha chiamato casa: Londra. Dall'appartamento di Poirot a Whitehaven Mansions a Scotland Yard, dall'Old Bailey ad Harley Street, dalle Lyons Tea Rooms al Savoy, dalla stazione di Paddington alle linee della metropolitana, la scrittrice conosceva e amava la capitale britannica, e ne sfruttava le ricche opportunità narrative. Lo dimostra questa raccolta che include dodici gialli londinesi con tutti gli amatissimi detective creati dalla penna di Agatha Christie: Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, Tommy e Tuppence, Harley Quin, Parker Pyne e Ariadne Oliver. contributori LE Simona Biasetti"
