While not one of Christie's more famous works, Towards Zero deserves its fair share of aclaim. Unlike some of her stories, this one affords enough clues for the reader to be able to, in theory, solve the case, but it is so expertly contrived that it takes a mastermind to do so. It certainly has a very ghostly and spooky aura, which especially lends it to readers of intrigue.
