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.

un buen giro a la dupla sherlok-watson

me encantó; un gran hombre con caracter autoritario que se va descubriendo poco a poco, un montón de gente con motivos para matarlo, todas y todos sus amigxs y buenos conocidxs, el clasico narrador asistente del detective, y un monton de secretos. El final si que me tomo por sorpresa, de esos en los que piesas, no puede ser pero sí :00 y tiene todo el sentido del mundo
