There Were None The book And Then There Were None was written by Agatha Christie in 1939. The book is a mystery novel that was published in England on November 6, 1939, but not released in the United States until December of 1939.

I feel that the people were brought to the secluded island because they were handpicked because of crimes they were of supposed to have committed and the person did not fill like they were punished
The first one is the ‘island mode’, which later contributed a lot to Japanese detective storywriters.

one. In the novel And Then There Were None (ATTWN) written by Agatha Christie, the mystery elements that were used were: Main conflict, setting, characterization, and the author’s techniques of giving clues. As the reader followed the plot of the novel, the main conflict is the person versus person or Wargrave versus the rest of the group.

In Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, Justice Wargrave arranges the death of 10 people in the order of how guilty they are about the crime they have committed.

Justice Wargrave’s shiftiness, cleverness, and desire allow the judge to prevail in the murder of the other nine people and himself.

Journal Number One The book “And then there were None,” by Agatha Christie, thus far, I feel has an unrealistic plot, but the format and writing style of this story makes it very intriguing to read. I find it odd how ten strangers get a letter from someone they are not too familiar with and regardless of the fact that some of them haven 't even meet the host’s, all ten characters decide to accept the invitation to Soldier Island.
