Gipsy's Acre was a truly beautiful upland site with views out to sea – and in Michael Rogers, it stirred a child-like fantasy. There, amongst the dark fir trees, he planned to build a house, find a girl, and live happily ever after. Yet, as he left the village, a shadow of menace hung over the land. This was the place where accidents happened.

Perhaps Michael should have heeded the locals’ warnings: 'There’s no luck for them as meddles with Gipsy’s Acre.' Michael Rogers is a man who is about to learn the true meaning of the old saying 'In my end is my beginning.'

The title Endless Night was taken from William Blake’s Auguries of Innocence and describes Christie’s favorite theme in the novel: a “twisted” character, who always chooses evil over good.
