And+Then+There+Were+None+Epilogue+Questions

EPILOGUE

39. Look again at the book’s Epilogue. Who are the detectives in charge of solving these crimes?

Are they able to come up with any answers? Evaluate their success, identifying the points on which they are correct and those on which they are incorrect in their reconstruction of the events on Indian Island.

40. Who is the murderer? How is his or her identity revealed? Justice Wargrave, and his identity is revealed through his epilogue.

41. Who is the mysterious Mr. Owen? Nobody truely, he's just a man that Wargrave made up.

42. Were you satisfied with the novel’s conclusion? And were you surprised by it? Yes I was satisfied, and no I wasn't surprised by it.

43. Did you, as a reader and an armchair detective, find the ending fully credible and plausible? Did the murderer’s “confession” seem fitting and appropriate to you? Explain your answers. Yes, I did find the ending plausible, and yes I approve of the murderer's confession. I thought Wargrave explains his plan quite well.

Define the term “red herring”. A thing that the author puts in the story to make you think one things happening when something else is actually happening.

44. And Then There Were None is generally seen as one of the best mystery novels ever published. What are the clues in this mystery? What are the red herrings?

Generally a good effort on these questions. You are just missing a few.
