Setting


The setting of the book is on a mysterious, isolated island, which occurs to have no humanization on it. This island is called Indian Island, a fictional island, and is located off the coast of Devon. The book storyline took place in the 1930s which makes the book old, but still accepted today and the mystery is still a typical mystery story that we would see and read today.  With the unique setting of the book, it made the mystery story possible because they were on an isolated island so no one could get off the island or get help, like the murderer planned. It also made all the characters get to know each other better because they were the only ten people around on the small island and then they ended up suspecting each other. Also, because it was an isolated island and there was no one else on the island to be suspected as the murderer, it made all the characters to go crazy and confused with everything they were witnessing. The setting enhanced the story by adding suspense to the story because as a reader, you want to know how they were going to get help or get in contact with other people and get off the island and survive. The setting used for this book, was a good choice as it enhanced the book and only added to the plot.
