Death on the Nile
by Agatha Christie
Easily one of my favorite [a:Agatha Christie|123715|Agatha Christie|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1321738793p2/123715.jpg] mysteries. Poirot is at it again!
There seems to be extra sass in this book. Poirot has the mantra of "I've seen this all before" and that's what makes his dialogue so engaging. He's a calm presence in an otherwise hectic atmosphere. What's fascinating about this book is that it's a gruesome love story and I've never read anything else like it. Everyone gets caught up in the tragedy of [b:Murder on the Orient Express|853510|Murder on the Orient Express (Hercule Poirot, #10)|Agatha Christie|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1486131451l/853510._SY75_.jpg|2285570] or the suspense of [b:And Then There Were None|16299|And Then There Were None|Agatha Christie|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1391120695l/16299._SY75_.jpg|3038872], but "Death on the Nile" combines all the best features from Christie's writing. The final plot twist is so intricate that I never could have guessed it. It's worth the read even just as a writer to understand Christie's talented plot pacing. I can't wait for the upcoming adaptation of this book!
