This book is my fourth Christie and fourth Poirot, I think. It did not disappoint.
Throughout all of the books I've read by Christie, I'm kept guessing as to who the murder was, and in this, one it truly blew my mind. The twist is almost as amazing as the twist in Murder on the Orient Express.
This book takes place on the Nile River, and a rich British socialite is shot through the head.
The murder doesn't even happen for awhile, but all of the time leading up to that is amazing character development.
I didn't guess the culprit. Guess I'll try again on the next one.
