Overview

Hercule Poirot, Agatha Christie’s redoubtable Belgian sleuth, returns to solve another three bedeviling murder mysteries.   In Death on the Nile the tranquility of a luxury cruise along the Nile is 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.   In The ABC Murders there’s a serial killer on the loose, working his way through the alphabet and the whole country is in a state of panic: A is for Mrs. Ascher in Andover, B is for Betty Barnard in Bexhill, C is for Sir Carmichael Clarke in Churston. With each murder, the killer is getting more confident—but leaving a trail of deliberate clues to taunt the proud Hercule Poirot might just prove to be the first, and fatal, mistake. In Five Little Pigs, Poirot revisits the case of beautiful Caroline Crale, who was convicted of poisoning her husband. But just like the nursery rhyme, there were five other “little pigs” who could have done it: Philip Blake (the stockbroker), who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist), who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcée), who had her roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess), who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister), who cried all the way home. Sixteen years later, Caroline’s daughter is determined to prove her mother’s innocence, and Poirot just can’t get that nursery rhyme out of his mind.   Death on the Nile and Other Hercule Poirot Mysteries is one of Barnes & Noble’s Collectible Edition classics.
