My latest Agatha Christie read....
"Young, rich, and beautiful Linnet Ridgeway has almost everything. What she doesn't have, she takes. For instance, her best friend Jackie's man. When Linnet and her new beau embark on their honeymoon cruise along the Nile, nothing can keep Jackie from their shadows. And no one - not even detective Hercule Poirot - can prevent a crime of passion. But faced with the suspect's airtight alibi, can he even prove who did it?" - from the back cover
Death on the Nile, continues to show in my mind why Agatha Christie is THE genius of the detective novel. She once again gathers a dozen or more people together, gives them all reasons for wanting to kill the subject, then gives them all alibis... and then solves the crime... it is a fantastic read, but if you are not a reader... check out the DVD version with David Suchet...
