The Murder of Roger Ackroyd | comment |
A 1926 mystery novel by Agatha Christie, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd was the book that propelled its author to fame, and is still widely regarded as one of her finest, and certainly among her most notable. Even today the Twist Ending remains controversial.Mrs. Ferrars, a wealthy widow in a quiet English village, has apparently taken her own life. Local industrialist Roger Ackroyd, who was romantically involved with Mrs. Ferrars, confesses in private that his lover had admitted to him that she murdered her bullying, abusive, drunken husband with poison...and that someone had found this out, ruthlessly blackmailing her and driving her to suicide. Now, a letter in the post from Mrs. Ferrars is about to reveal all—but before Ackroyd can learn and expose the identity of the culprit, he is found dead in his study, stabbed viciously in the neck with his own ornamental dagger. An apparently Open-and-Shut Case uncovers a likely suspect, but the village has by chance a new resident; Monsieur Hercule Poirot, the noted detective, who has retired to the countryside to grow vegetables. His legendary "little grey cells" intrigued by the case, Poirot soon discovers that all is not as it seems...The story was adapted as an episode of Poirot in 2000; tropes concerning this adaptation can be found on the series page. The novel was also made into a Russian film in 2002, entitled Неудача Пуаро ("Neudacha Puaro" — "Poirot's Failure"), and a Japanese TV movie, Kuroido Goroshi.And a quick note on spoilers: while every effort has been taken to avoid spoiling plot-crucial details regarding the novel on this page, the nature of the story (and the Twist Ending especially) means that it's hard to discuss without some kind of spoileriffic information slipping through. New readers should take that into account before proceeding on.The novel went into the public domain in the US in 2022 and can be read here. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_12b796e | comment |
Phoney Call: Part of Sheppard's alibi consists of arranging for a patient of his to call Sheppard on his way out of town. Sheppard pretends that this is notification of the murder, and then goes to Ackroyd's house to finish setting up his alibi. | |

Greedy Jew: When Mrs. Ackroyd complains about being hounded by creditors, Dr. Sheppard says "I suspect a Semitic strain in their ancestry." It could be just Christie indulging in anti-Semitism, or a hint that Sheppard isn't as nice as he seems. | |

Unreliable Narrator | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_1869b4b1 | comment |
Unreliable Narrator: A doozy of an example. Dr. Sheppard, who has been narrating the story in classic Watson-style, is the murderer. Sheppard NEVER tells a single lie (to us readers, that is; he only lies to Poirot and the others), nor does he even resort to truthful but misleading statements. He simply leaves something out. It should also be noted the number of times the narrator writes about being puzzled and confused about aspects of the case; he's being completely honest each time. Every suspect has something to hide, from the embarrassing to the outright criminal, and has lied to cover it up. A great example is Ackroyd's niece, who claims she spoke to Ackroyd around a quarter to 10 on the night of the murder, something Sheppard knows is impossible. It turns out she had stolen some cash from Ackroyd's upstairs bedroom, saw the butler approaching as she was heading down the stairs, and rushed down the stairs, pretending she'd come from the study, and claimed to have just spoken to her uncle. It may not be a lie, but it's certainly deceptive on Sheppard's part when he spots the other letters on the floor, where Ackroyd had dropped. He notes that the blue envelope with the letter from Mrs. Ferrars had "disappeared". It didn't disappear, of course; Sheppard burned it in the fire after he killed Ackroyd, though that is technically making it 'disappear'. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_22cf536c | comment |
Chekhov's Gun: The Dictaphone Company salesman's visit. Ackroyd did buy a dictaphone, and Sheppard used it to set up his alibi. Sheppard's wasted "legacy", mentioned early in the novel. In fact he received no legacy; he was blackmailing Mrs. Ferrars. A seemingly random reference early on about Sheppard seeing an American sailor patient. This is the person who unknowingly placed the crucial phone call. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The killer. Leaving aside the obvious fact that he's revealed to be a blackmailer and murderer, re-reading the novel after the reveal suggests several hints that Dr. Sheppard isn't as nice as he likes to act, and indeed has a vein of arrogant, condescending superiority towards the people he's surrounded by. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: Major Blunt claims that he hates going to the theatre (particularly opera), but some of his theatre-going experiences seem to have profoundly resonated with him; he's familiar with Faust and Pelléas et Mélisande, and he compares a conversation he's in to "one of those Danish plays", presumably a reference to Scandinavian authors such as Henrik Ibsen (Norwegian who wrote in Danish). | |

Everyone Is a Suspect | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_323fd510 | comment |
Everyone Is a Suspect: Almost every named character, including the narrator, is a suspect. And when Poirot brings six people to the table mid-novel, he declares, correctly, that everyone else there (including, yes, the narrator) had something to hide, all of which are revealed over the course of the next several chapters. While Dr. Sheppard's publicly revealed secret is that he'd helped Ralph Paton get into hiding, there's a second, much deeper secret that the good doctor is hiding, and is in fact revealed in the very next chapter—that Dr. Sheppard is the murderer. | |

Inheritance Murder: Considered as a motive, as most of the cast stood to inherit something from the Ackroyd estate, and some of them really needed the money. Ultimately averted, the inheritance is a red herring. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_34579385 | comment |
Bad Guys Do the Dirty Work: Even though it was motivated by entirely selfish reasons, the titular murder ends up saving quite a few people from some very tight spots. To wit... Ralph Paton becomes a fabulously wealthy man and is able to pay all his debts and start a new life with his wife Ursula. Flora becomes financially independent and is able to marry Major Blunt. Geoffrey Raymond, Ackroyd's secretary, was in considerable debt, but the £500 (As of 2020, a little over £31,000 adjusted for inflation) Ackroyd left him in his will cleared up that problem. | |

First-Person Peripheral Narrator | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_3d5377e5 | comment |
First-Person Peripheral Narrator: Played straight, and then subverted. Dr. Sheppard is the helpful narrator, telling the story of Poirot's investigation to the reader. Just like the other Poirot stories that are mostly narrated by Poirot's usual Watson, Captain Hastings, this is done so that the reader doesn't know what Poirot is thinking. It's subverted at the end however when we find out that Sheppard isn't "peripheral" to the story at all; he is the murderer. | |

Crazy-Prepared: Sheppard, on pretty short notice, manages to steal Ralph Paton's shoes, rig up a Dictaphone to play a message on a time delay, and arrange for a patient of his to place a crucial telephone call at a certain time — all that without being completely sure what Roger Ackroyd wanted to talk about. His confession in the last chapter even reveals he'd brought a murder weapon of his own... only to choose the dagger instead since such a weapon wouldn't be immediately traceable to him. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_974d246c | comment |
Be as Unhelpful as Possible: If it weren't for so many of the suspects' efforts to conceal their own secrets, the killer wouldn't have had so easy a time setting up an alibi, to say nothing of the fact that they needlessly waste Poirot's time. Lampshaded by the killer, as even they were surprised by how unhelpful everyone was. | |

Rewatch Bonus | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_97926168 | comment |
Rewatch Bonus: Many incidents in the book take on a completely different meaning once the reader knows that Dr. Sheppard is the murderer. For example: Ackroyd tells Sheppard that someone was blackmailing Mrs. Ferrars. In his narration Sheppard says "Suddenly before my eyes the there arose the picture of Ralph Paton and Mrs. Ferrars side by side." The reader assumes that Sheppard suspects Paton of being the blackmailer. In reality Sheppard is wondering if Mrs. Ferrars told Paton that Sheppard was blackmailing her. And then the entire penultimate chapter is read not as Sheppard trying to match Poirot in figuring out who the murderer is, but as his last desperate attempt to throw Poirot off the track. | |

Death by Irony: Sheppard's death, which occurs by the same method as Mrs. Ferrars' suicide. And what makes it unusual — it was deliberately planned so on the part of the killed one. "There would be a kind of poetic justice", as they put it. | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_9ccb5f39 | comment |
Summation Gathering: Subverted. Poirot gets everyone together, airs out many of the secrets they were keeping, and explains some puzzling aspects of the murder like Ackroyd's "the demands of my purse" message heard at 9:30. However, he does not identify the murderer in front of everyone. The assembled parties leave without hearing whodunnit — that is left to the private exchange between Poirot and the murderer that immediately follows. | |

Foreshadowing | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Beyond the Fair-Play Whodunnit clues, there are a couple of hints. Caroline makes a comment about Dr. Sheppard's "weakness", and how she has to look after him. This is followed immediately by Poirot launching into a thoughtful hypothesis about how the killer first plunged into blackmail in a moment of weakness. At the Summation Gathering Poirot reveals that Dr. Sheppard was concealing the whereabouts of Ralph Paton. Poirot specifically points out that Sheppard's manuscript, while truthful, only goes so far. This knowledge that Sheppard was withholding facts from his narrative prepares the reader for the much bigger secret that is revealed soon after. | |

Realistic Diction Is Unrealistic | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_ce9da072 | comment |
Realistic Diction Is Unrealistic: A plot point. Ackroyd was heard to be speaking in his study at 9:30, leading everyone to believe the murder must have happened after that. But what he was heard to say ("...the demands on my purse have been so frequent of late that I fear I cannot accede to your request...") strikes Poirot as something that nobody would have actually spoken in conversation with another person; it sounds far more as though Ackroyd were dictating a letter. This leads Poirot to deduce that Ackroyd was already dead by 9:30 and the words he was heard to speak were a Dictaphone recording. | |

Fair-Play Whodunnit | |
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_d104235d | comment |
Fair-Play Whodunnit: The way Poirot ultimately solves the crime is by reading what Dr. Sheppard wrote down, which is exactly what the reader is reading. Which means that an acute reader could actually pick up most of the important clues before Poirot does. Well, except possibly the dictaphone issue, which is still revealed just a bit before the final denouement. And there's also a matter of Dr. Sheppard's legacy — but come on, you didn't even suspect he was capable of lying in the first place, did you? | |

Contrived Coincidence: Considering that the murder was committed with only limited fore-planning, the sheer number of other things going on at Fernly Park on that very same night that helped muddy the waters and create red herrings almost defies belief, from Flora choosing that very night to steal money, to Ursula giving her notice earlier in the day, to Russell's illegitimate son arriving at Fernly Park just as Dr. Sheppard was leaving the house. Even the killer could hardly believe it, and said as much. | |

Amateur Sleuth: Caroline Sheppard, the narrator's sister, makes a downplayed example. She's the town gossip, and her attempts to figure out the killer are Played for Laughs, particularly when she confides in her brother that she figured out the real murder weapon: poison! Cue Dr. Sheppard, baffled, pointing out that there was a knife found in Ackroyd's neck. Caroline confidently asserts "it was a false clue". Reportedly, Christie enjoyed writing Caroline and liked the idea that a nosy gossip might turn out to be a rather good detective so much that she ended up developing her into a main character in her own right... | |

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd / int_f70710ae | comment |
Blackmail Backfire: Agatha Christie always punishes blackmail with death, though here the trope plays out differently from her usual formula of the murder killing his/her blackmailer. Here, the blackmailer is the murderer, resorting to the latter crime to cover up the blackmail, being unmasked by Poirot, and finally committing suicide to escape legal justice. | |
