This was my fourth, and favorite so far, Agatha Christie novel since I decided to challenge myself to read all of her novels over the next few years. It was the third in the Hercule Poirot series. A page turner from the beginning, this whodunnit was full of surprising twists and turns right up until the end. ( ) What can I say about this book? I love the way Agatha Christie weaves her mysteries. It kept me guessing and it was fun the whole way. It takes a few chapters to really get going, but once it does, youâd get whiplash easily from all the finger pointing! The only thing I didnât like was when one of the characters wrote down what weâd been over, I felt like that was either dumbing it down or purposely misleading and I just wanted to go for the ride. âBut there she was quite wrong - for a matter of death was exactly what it was.â Dun, dun, duh! âŠâa person A who has grievously wronged a person B. The person B desires the revenge. The person B makes the threats.â 3 deaths, 3 murders. All aboard a boat cruising down the Nile. Thank goodness that Hercule Poirot is on board too! As he often seems to be... A good who-done-it in the traditional Agatha Christie style! Lots of misdirection, lots of suspects! And the scene at the end gets pretty crazy, as love often does!

HTML: Soon to be a major motion picture sequel to Murder on the Orient Express with a screenplay by Michael Green, directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh alongside Gal Gadotâ??coming February 11, 2022! Beloved detective Hercule Poirot embarks on a journey to Egypt in one of Agatha Christie's most famous mysteries. The tranquility of a luxury cruise along the Nile was shattered by the discovery that Linnet Ridgeway had been shot through the head. She was young, stylish, and beautiful. A girl who had everything . . . until she lost her life. Hercule Poirot recalled an earlier outburst by a fellow passenger: "I'd like to put my dear little pistol against her head and just press the trigger." Yet under the searing heat of the Egyptian sun, nothing is ever quite what it seems. A sweeping mystery of love, jealousy, and betrayal, Death on the Nile is one of Christie's most legendary and timeless works. "Death on the Nile is perfect." â??The Guardian "One of her best. . . . First rate entertainment." â??Kirkus Reviews No library descriptions found. |
