When the wealthy Roger Ackroyd is found brutally stabbed to death in his locked study, a chilling panic grips the estate. Every smile hides a motive; every whisper masks a lie. The local police are hopelessly outmatched by a web of blackmail and hushed scandals, but an eccentric, sharp-minded newcomer living quietly next door is reluctantly drawn into this deadly psychological labyrinth. Guided by the meticulous journal entries of the local physician, Dr. James Sheppard, he sifts through a household of wolves in sheep's clothing. This production brings Agatha Christie’s ultimate masterpiece to life - a claustrophobic, breathless puzzle that completely shattered the rules of detective fiction. Trust absolutely no one, question every word, and prepare yourself for the most jaw-dropping twist in literary history.
