Classics Book Discussion: The Murder of Roger Ackroyd In-Person
The Classics Book Discussion Group meets the last Wednesday of each month at 7 PM. Registration is not required.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, by Agatha Christie
The story that made Agatha Christie famous ends with one of her most dramatic twists. The villagers of King’s Abbot are shocked when a wealthy local widow commits suicide and the very next day her fiancé, Roger Ackroyd, is stabbed to death. Dr. James Sheppard, the local physician, discovers the body of his friend and narrates the ensuing hunt for the killer. All the guests and staff at Ackroyd’s country house seem to have solid alibis—except for his missing stepson. But as the authorities hone in on their most obvious suspect, the recently retired detective Hercule Poirot unexpectedly turns up and joins the fray.
