Death on the Nile

Soon to be a major motion picture sequel to Murder on the Orient Express, directed by Kenneth Branagh, this movie tie-in of the beloved Agatha Christie classic sees legendary detective Hercule Poirot travel to Africa.

“Agatha Christie’s books are both wonderful crime novels and studies in contrast and duality, and I adore them still. Underestimate them at your peril.”—Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Inspector Gamache novels 

The tranquility of a cruise along the Nile was 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 in this exotic setting nothing is ever quite what it seems.

One of Agatha Christie’s most famous mysteries, Death on the Nile will shock, thrill, and entertain readers.
