TV News: Lifetime Presents Agatha Christie's AND THEN THERE WERE NONE A Two-Night Miniseries Event Beginning Mar 13

I am a huge fan of Agatha Christie. I fell in love with her writing after watching the film adaptation of her novel “Death On the Nile,” and have devoured her books ever since. One of my favorite characters is spinster sleuth Miss Jane Marple; her brilliance and deductive reasoning are astonishing. Of course, the infamous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is also quite astute in his findings when presented with a perplexing mystery.

There are so many stories written by Christie to try and sink your teeth into and discover the identity of the murderer before the very end. I’ve only been able to riddle out a few. The suspense is magnificent! And while I’ve read “And Then There Were None” (which has had quite a few interesting title changes) at least three times, I still find something I missed every single time I read it. I’m beyond excited to see this adaptation. The all-star cast is extraordinary!
