Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie
4.0
adventurous mysterious fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Another excellent outing by Hercule Poirot! It's good to return to the source material when Hollywood have produced such a travesty masquerading as an adaptation. The same period-typical racist stereotypes as can be seen in nearly all Agatha Christie books do appear, exacerbated by the fact that the story is set in Egypt, but most of the focus remains on the clever and intricately plotted murder mystery.
