Answer 1

These are the characters in the order that they "die" in the book.

Try to read it sometime - its brilliant - one of Agatha's best.

Anthony James Marston, a young man. His three loves are fast cars, women and foot-long hotdogs. An almost perfect specimen of a man born to a wealthy family, he's vain and self-absorbed with little time for the lower orders of society who he may have harmed at one point in the past.

Mrs. Ethel Rogers, the nervous housekeeper and cook. One of the first people to come to the island, she's respectable and efficient but seems scared of something and is always looking over her shoulder. She may have a good reason.

General John Gordon MacArthur, a retired World War I hero. He's now a lonely but still proud man who has lost contact with his old friends in the military and has, according to the rumors, more than a few skeletons in his closet.

Mr. Thomas Rogers, the butler, Mrs. Rogers' husband. One of the first people to come to the island, he's respectable, efficient but with no imagination. Every inch the model English butler - but appearances may be deceptive.

Emily Caroline Brent, an elderly spinster and a religious zealot. A woman of unyielding principles who uses the Bible to justify anything and her inability of showing compassion or understanding for others may have caused suffering in the past.

Justice Lawrence Wargrave ("the Hanging Judge"), a retired judge famous for the many death sentences he pronounced in his career: he may have used the letter of the law to evade the spirit of the law on occasions.

Dr. Edward George Armstrong, a Harley Street surgeon. Worked his way up the social ladder but lately he has become tired with the long working hours with little reprieve. Has an extremely addictive personality which may have got him into trouble in the past.

William Henry Blore, a retired police inspector, now a private investigator. A big, hulking and bullying man who solved a series of robberies during his police days but may not have been entirely honest about his methods.

Philip Lombard, a soldier of fortune. Travelled most of the world and has a reputation of being a good man in a tight spot: he has apparently "sailed very near the wind" on occasion due to shady activities. Literally down to his last square meal, he comes to the island with a loaded revolver.

Vera Elizabeth Claythorne, a young teacher and ex-governess. Forced to take mostly secretarial jobs since her last job as a governess dried up. The details of her break up with her fiancee are clouded in mystery.
