I mean, I think probably in Then There Were None is the best one, but there's one called Crooked House. Oh. That is so creepy and weird...
Why people recommend it
Crooked House by Agatha Christie is a psychological mystery novel revolving around the secretive and dysfunctional members of a wealthy family residing in a sprawling English estate. Josh Clark brought up the book and its 2017 film adaptation on Stuff You Should Know, praising the novel as widely regarded as one of her most ingenious, inventive, and best-constructed works. Gilbert Cruz and Tina Jordan also discussed the book on The Book Review, highlighting its unsettling atmosphere and agreeing that it stands out as uniquely creepy and weird among the author's extensive bibliography. Listeners appreciate the novel for its subversion of traditional cozy mystery tropes, featuring a darker tone and a shocking conclusion that lingers long after the final page. It remains a favorite recommendation for readers looking to explore Christie's lesser-known masterpieces beyond her most famous titles like And Then There Were None or Murder on the Orient Express.
