Dirty Diana

Andrea Smith

At sixteen, I felt I would always be a misfit. 
Popularity had eluded me, and I was pretty much a loner by choice. My world existed on the internet; gaming, and chat rooms were my escape, because there, my anonymity was my shield. 
Known by my handle, D-10, I fit in with the others, and met some phenomenal virtual friends. One special friend in fact was Dastardly Damned. We clicked. We gamed online, and finally we made plans to meet at a local hangout. 
Only I never saw his face.  
I never saw what was coming. 
My life would never be the same. 
And Dastardly Damned would pay...

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd -...

Agatha Christie

Book #4 in Agatha Christie's Poirot series.

Proclaimed by the Crime Writers' Association as 'the finest example of the genre ever penned', The Murder of Roger Ackroyd contains one of the most celebrated twists in crime fiction and is consistently voted among Agatha Christie's best novels.

It is, famously, the Poirot novel that demands to be heard twice: the curious listener cannot resist re-examining what they thought they knew. Laura Thompson, Christie's biographer, described it as 'masterly: deceptive in every way', and it remains a rare treat for those who savour the challenge of a whodunnit, yet love to be taken in by a master of her craft.
Agatha Christie (1890 – 1976) was an English author. She was a prolific writer, most famous for her detective novels and short story collections which centred around the iconic characters of Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple. Renowned as the 'Queen of Crime', she remains the bestselling novelist of all time, with her sales only second to the Bible.
