In And Then There Were None, did you enjoy ...

... a houseful of suspects whose secrets collide in isolation?

One by One by Ruth Ware

You liked how the guests on Soldier Island eye one another across the dining table after the gramophone accusation, each with something to hide and no way out. In One by One, a tech team is snowed into a French Alps chalet as their numbers dwindle, and the shifting alliances and tensions feel just like watching Vera, Lombard, Blore, and the rest size each other up—only now it’s corporate grudges and personal betrayals tightening the noose.

Book Cover for The Guest List

... the claustrophobic island setting and locked-room tension?

The Guest List by Lucy Foley

If the storm-lashed isolation of Soldier Island and the mounting dread of the “Ten Little Soldiers” rhyme pulled you in, you’ll love the remote Irish island wedding in The Guest List. The ferry’s gone, the weather turns, the lights flicker—just as with Justice Wargrave’s meticulous setup, every guest has a secret, and the island refuses to let anyone escape the consequences.

... jaw-dropping reveals that reframe everything you’ve read?

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie

That final confession explaining how each death on Soldier Island was orchestrated is the kind of audacious reveal Christie perfected. In The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, she pulls off another legendary twist—one that, like Wargrave’s plan, forces you to rethink every earlier scene, conversation, and clue once you see how cleverly you were misled.

... characters haunted by guilt and capable of terrible choices?

The Secret History by Donna Tartt

Part of the chill in And Then There Were None is realizing every guest—Vera and Cyril, Lombard’s “tribe,” General Macarthur’s orders—carries a hidden crime. The Secret History follows an elite group of classics students whose rationalizations spiral into murder and cover-ups. As in Wargrave’s moral reckoning, watching culpability curdle into paranoia is the point—and the thrill.

Book Cover for The Tokyo Zodiac Murders

... a fair-play puzzle that rewards close attention to clues?

The Tokyo Zodiac Murders by Soji Shimada

If you savored the puzzle-box precision of the nursery rhyme killings and the final letter laying out Wargrave’s logic, The Tokyo Zodiac Murders delivers that same intellectual jolt. Presented with ciphers, maps, and a decades-old set of murders tied to an artist’s manifesto, it invites you—explicitly—to solve it before the detective does, rewarding the sharp-eyed reader as ruthlessly as Christie.
