Description

“A top-notch literary brainteaser.” –New York Times

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 Gadot—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.” —The Guardian

“One of her best. . . . First rate entertainment.” —Kirkus Reviews

    A fantastic murder mystery that actually has a main focus on the mystery itself and not everything else

    Very elaborate Murder for love. Multiple deaths and some happily ever afters. Not a lot of ‘Egyptian’ atmosphere.

    I had to read this for summer reading and it was slow moving and really boring. If your not required to read this I don't recommend this book at ALL!! It took so long and it was it was a really bad book. I hated it and I want to forget about the book. I will NEVER READ this book again! Also this book ruined murder mysteries.
