Eight personalities are invited to a remote island house where they are met by two staff who have been hired to look after them.

Ten figurines sit on the dining room table & copies of the nursey rhyme “Ten Little Niggers” are found in their rooms. After their first meal a gramophone recording is played which accuses all of them as murderers. As the days pass, they die one by one and each death is marked by the destruction or disappearance of one of the figurines. It was first published in the UK as a book by Collins Crime Club in 1939 with the title “Ten Little Niggers.” * A NEAR FINE text copy with only minor cover wear reducing it to VG+.
