Just finished an Agatha Christie bestseller: "And Then There Were None," also known as "Ten Little Indians"
Brilliant! An extraordinary display of sheer genius! You can easily feel the tension from the very first page until the end of the murders (they're nothing special by the way), but the solution - man, that was perfect. I have read 2-3 of her works before, though while she managed to catch me offguard everytime, this one almost drove me crazy. I never would've guessed that twist.
I always doubted if she was truly the queen of detective fiction; I used to prefer Sherlock many times over. But this- this convinced me that she's maybe, just maybe, she's actually better than Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
