Nesreća nevinih

Nesreća nevinih

Agatha Christie

Prema rečima autorke, „Nesreća nevinih“ (1958) je, zajedno sa „Zlom kućom“, najbolji roman koji je napisala. Radnja romana fokusira se na posledice nakon što se otkrije da je čovek osuđen za ubistvo bio nevin.

Priča počinje kada dr Artur Kalgari, geolog, poseti porodicu Argajl i otkrije da je Džeko Argajl, osuđen za ubistvo svoje majke Rejčel Argajl, umro u zatvoru. Kalgari donosi dokaze da Džeko nije bio krivac, jer je bio sa njim u vreme zločina. Ovo otkriće potresa porodicu, koja se već pomirila sa Džekovom krivicom.

Porodica Argajl, bogata, ali nefunkcionalna, sastoji se od udovca Lea, njegove dece (uglavnom usvojene) i njihove domaćice Kirsten. Svi su imali motive za ubistvo Rejčel, žene koja je bila dominantna, ali i manipulativna. Kalgarijevo otkriće stvara napetost jer znači da je pravi ubica i dalje među njima. Svaki član porodice postaje osumnjičeni, a stare tajne, uključujući ljubomoru, finansijske prevare i skrivene veze, izlaze na površinu.

Dok se porodica bori sa krivicom i međusobnim optužbama, Kalgari istražuje uz pomoć nekoliko članova porodice, otkrivajući složenu mrežu laži. Roman kulminira otkrićem pravog ubice, čiji su motivi vođeni duboko skrivenim emocijama i željom za osvetom.

Kristi istražuje psihološke posledice nepravde i kako istina može destabilizovati živote. Roman je napet, sa naglaskom na likovima i moralnim dilemama, a ne na klasičnoj detektivskoj istrazi.
