In the quiet English village of King's Abbot, a wealthy widow's sudden suicide is followed by a second, more shocking death. Roger Ackroyd, the man who was to be her husband, is found brutally murdered in his study. The door is locked from the inside, and the last person to see him alive was his friend, the local physician Dr. Sheppard. Ackroyd had just received a crucial letter revealing the name of a blackmailer who drove his fiancée to her death, but that letter has now vanished.

The tranquil village is thrown into turmoil as every resident becomes a suspect. A big-game hunter, a neurotic sister-in-law, Ackroyd's troubled stepson, and even the household staff all harbor secrets they are desperate to protect. Into this web of suspicion steps the newly retired Hercule Poirot. Persuaded to take on the case, he must rely on his "little grey cells" to unravel a mystery where the truth is far more complex and startling than anyone could imagine. This novel challenges the very conventions of the detective story, leading to a conclusion that remains one of the most talked-about in the history of the genre.
