The Mousetrap and Other Plays

As a mystery novelist with my debut book in its initial release (and a one-time drama coach), I enjoy Agatha Christie's THE MOUSETRAP every time I view it. The text itself is a great read, and when it is properly staged, the play is spectacular. For those of you not familiar with THE MOUSETRAP, the plot involves a classic cozy murder mystery--perhaps the classic cozy murder mystery. The characters are well-drawn, and my wife even verbally gasped when she first saw the play's final plot twist. Great work. I hope it survives forever.

i didn't care much for the other stories but Mousetrap was real good - I seem to have bought this book long ago- ofcourse the cover was different. What particularly impressed me about Mousetrap was that there were not many people in the cottage who could have "done it" and yet it was impossible to tell "who did it!"

This book was REALLY good. You have to figure out how to read plays first, but after you get the hang of it, it's really good. The stories are awesome and even if you've already read the book that the play is based on it's really cool to see how the play ended differently. A lot of people have read And Then There Were None already, but Ten Little Indians (in this book) was really different and I think it was better.
