I found this softcover on the Tyngsboro MA post office book-swap shelf while dropping off books of my own.
This is one of Christie's better known books - under several different titles, including Ten Little Indians - and one that practically started its own sub-genre: the suspects/victims stranded somewhere (island, snowbound hotel, whatever) as, one by one, they turn up dead... It has inspired a number of screen adaptations as well as stage versions - and a recent TV mini-series. The adaptations often play with the plot a bit, sometimes to impressive effect.
[There's a TV Tropes page on the book and many of its adaptations, with some entertaining tidbits. But do beware of spoilers if you haven't read the book yet!]
