Description: The peaceful English village of King's Abbot was stunned. First the attractive widow Ferrars died from an overdose of veronal. Not twenty-four hours later, Roger Ackroyd--the man she had planned to marry--was murdered. It was a baffling complex case involving blackmail, suicide, and violent death, a case that taxed all Hercule Poirot's "little grey cells" before he reached one of the most startling conclusions of his fabled career.
