The Ending Writes Itself by Evelyn Clarke
And Then There Were None is my favourite Agatha Christie novel, so I was eager to dive into this book. I’m happy to say I loved it! I thoroughly enjoyed the initial focus on the distinct characters, each with complex/messy backstories, insecurities, and motivations.
