...canon of classic whodunits, Agatha Christie's Ackroyd holds a revered but controversial place. A unique work (for reasons that can't be revealed without spoiling the fun), its very nature resists adaptation.

...Already, Let's Go is planning on a staff of 90 that will keep the homefire burning over the summer. The workload is intense, but the flavor is light and crispy. Casual dress and spontaneous beach trips are staples of the Let's Go lifestyle. "We're trying to create a nice office culture," Stone says. Friendships form, and the office provides a summer social scene for its editors. "Tons of people live together. We go out drinking together, play softball and kickball together. We try to set up as many outlets as possible," Stone says. Managing editors are expected...
