Book summary:
Hercule Poirot is perhaps Agatha Christie's most interesting and endearing character; short, round, and slightly comical, Poirot has a razor-sharp mind and puts unlimited trust in his "little grey cells." Those little cells come through for him every time, enabling Poirot to solve some of the most baffling mysteries ever conceived. In Death on the Nile, Poirot, on vacation in Africa, meets the rich, beautiful Linnet Doyle and her new husband, Simon. As usual, all is not as it seems between the newlyweds, and when Linnet is found murdered, Poirot must sort through a boatload of suspects to find the killer before he (or she) strikes again. [via]

A facsimile first edition hardback of the book of the Thirteen at Dinner film, sporting the original cover and typesetting. Poirot had been present when Jane bragged of her plan to 'get rid of' her estranged husband. Now the monstrous man was dead. And yet the great Belgian detective couldn't help feeling that he was being taken for a ride. After all, how could Jane have stabbed Lord Edgware to death in his library at exactly the same time she was seen dining with friends? And what could be her motive now that the aristocrat had finally granted her a divorce? To mark the 80th anniversary of Hercule Poirot's first appearance, and to celebrate his renewed fortunes as a primetime television star, this title in a collection of facsimile first editions is the perfect way to experience Agatha Christie. Reproducing the original typesetting and format of the first edition from the Christie family's own archive, this book sports the original cover which has been painstakingly restored to its original glory.

Book summary:
In the quiet village of King's Abbot a widow's suicide has stirred suspicion - and dreadful gossip. There are rumours she murdered her first husband, rumours that she was blackmailed, and rumours that her secret lover was Roger Ackroyd. When Ackroyd is found murdered it is unlucky for the killer that Hercule Poirot is close by. Setting up the traditional rules of mystery only to shatter them, this ingeniously tricky masterpiece startied fans, polarised critics, and stunned the Detection Club, the highly esteemed literary organisation, of which Christie herself was a member. One of the most famous detective novels ever written, and certainly one of the most controversial, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was championed by Dorothy L Sayers who said, "Christie fooled you (all)...It's the readers business to suspect everyone." And you will. [via]

Book summary:
Jodi Picoult has touched readers deeply with her acclaimed novels, such as "Keeping Faith" and "The Pact." Gifted with "a remarkable ability to make us share her characters' feelings" "(People)," Picoult now explores the complex choices of the heart for a young Amish woman -- the compelling journey of discovery for an urban lawyer who befriends and protects her.
The small town of Paradise, Pennsylvania, is a jewel in Lancaster County -- known for its picture-postcard landscapes and bucolic lifestyle. But that peace is shattered by the discovery of a dead infant in the barn of an Amish farmer. A police investigation quickly leads to two startling disclosures: the newborn's mother is an unmarried Amish woman, eighteen-year-old Katie Fisher. And the infant did not die of natural causes. Although Katie denies the medical proof that she gave birth to the child, circumstantial evidence leads to her arrest for the murder of her baby.
One hundred miles away, Philadelphia defense attorney Ellie Hathaway has achieved an enviable, high-profile career. But her latest court "victory" has set the sands shifting beneath her. Single at thirty-nine and unsatisfied with her relationship, Ellie doesn't look back when she turns down her chance to make partner and takes off for an open-ended stay at her great-aunt's home in Paradise.
Fate brings her to Katie Fisher. Suddenly, Ellie sees the chance to defend a client who truly needs her, not just one who can afford her. But taking on this case challenges Ellie in more ways than one. She finds herself not only in a clash of wills with a client who does not want to be defended but also in a clash of cultures with a people whose channels ofjustice are markedly different from her own.
Immersing herself in Katie Fisher's life -- and in a world founded on faith, humility, duty, and honesty -- Ellie begins to understand the pressures and sacrifices of those who to live "plain." As she peels away the layers of fact and fantasy, Ellie calls on an old friend for guidance. Now, just as this man from Ellie's past reenters her life, she must uncover the truth about a complex case, a tragic loss, the bonds of love -- and her own deepest fears and desires.
Moving seamlessly from psychological drama to courtroom suspense, "Plain Truth" is a triumph of contemporary storytelling. Jodi Picoult presents a fascinating portrait of Amish life rarely witnessed by those outside the faith -- and discovers a place where circumstances are not always what they seem, where love meets falsehood, and where relationships grow strong enough to span two worlds.

Eight guests who have never met each other or their apparently absent host and hostess are lured to the island and, along with the two house servants, marooned. A mysterious voice accuses each of having gotten away with murder and then one drops dead---poisoned. One down and nine to go!

Book summary:
When an ad appears in the gazette announcing a murder to take place on Friday at Little Paddocks at 6:30 p.m., the locals show up, assuming it's a murder mystery party, only to get shot at and then become witnesses to the real murder of a boy no one knows. Fortunately, Miss Marple arrives and unravels this tangled skein before too many of them get bumped off. Miss Jane Marple doesn't look like your average detective. Quite frankly, she doesn't look like a detective at all. But looks can be deceiving, for the mild-mannered spinster sleuth is as adept at solving murders that baffle Scotland Yard as she is at unravelling village secrets.
Description in Spanish: En el periódico de Chipping Cleghorn se publica una noticia sorprendente que deja atónitos a los pacíficos vecinos del pueblo: "El viernes, a las seis y media, alguien morirá asesinado en casa de Letittia Blacklock.
La curiosidad es mayor que el miedo y las personas más relevantes de la población se dan cita en la casa a la hora anunciada. Una vez allí comprueban que la noticia del periódico era fidedigna, a la hora indicada se produce un asesinato. Afortunadamente, Miss Marple, de visita en la villa, se encarga de resolver el macabro asunto con su peculiar estilo. [via]

Book summary:
In a palace in Ramat, a prince entrusts a package of jewels to his pilot, in the hope that he can smuggle them to England. The pilot, in turn, hides them in his sisters baggage. But before the packet reaches its destination the prince and the pilot are both dead. Then Joan, the pilots sister, travels to England with her daughter Jennifer where she will be attending boarding school. Description in Spanish: En el sultanato de Ramat se ha producido una grave insurrección: el príncipe Alí Yusuf confía las fabulosas joyas de la familia a su piloto Bob Rawlison, quien las esconde en el equipaje de su hermana Joan. Poco después el príncipe y su piloto mueren en un accidente de aviación. Joan viaja a Inglaterra con su hija Jennifer a la que interna en un distinguido colegio de señoritas. Allí, entre las palomas se ha escondido un gato asesino, al que sólo la sagacidad de Hercule Poirot podrá cortar sus uñas afiladas. [via]

From each stratum he attempts to learn some lesson, and, each time, the succeeding stratum shows him the insufficiency of his ideas and raises the problem again.... It is this romance of an intellect that fascinates and instructs the psychologist. To trace it we need as many dates as possible.2 First Chronological Data It is known, before any detailed research, that Montaigne withdrew to his chateau and began working on the Essais in 1571; that Books I and II appeared in 1580; that Book III and about six hundred additions came out in 1588; that, beginning in 1588, correcting and enlarging a copy of the 1588 edition, Montaigne was preparing a new edition, which his death, on September 13, 1592, prevented his issuing. We possess this copy ('Exemplaire de Bordeaux'). It served as the foundation for the edition published in 1595 by MHe de Gournay. Up to this point it is evident that ninety-four essays are anterior to 1580, that thirteen were written between 1580 and 1588, and that the additions to these one hundred and seven were prepared between 1588 and September 13, 1592.
