The tranquillity of a cruise along the Nile was shattered by the discovery that Linnet Ridgeway ( Linnet Doyle) had been shot through the head. She was young, stylish, rich 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 was ever quite what it seemed...

Content warning Spoilers!!!!!
Nunca havia lido um livro desse gênero. De começo, não estando indo com a cara do livro, principalmente os nomes!!! Pensei, como em sã consciência decoraria todos esses nomes estranhos!!!??? No fim, deu tudo certo. Sobre o livro, talarica tem que morrer mesmo!!!!!! Sobre Poirot? Literalmente eu.
Otherwise very fun!
Otro clásico a la saca.
El estilo de Agatha Christie es muy peculiar: ironía fina, definición de arquetipos muy buena, crea escenarios brillantes y llenos de detalles. En este caso, la historia es interesante aunque creo que alarga mucho la preparación de la acción. Quizá tira mucho de estereotipos, pero consigue que no se hagan pesados.
Sobre el misterio, me parece interesante cómo lo resuelve. No es tanto el quién lo hace sino el cómo. Aún así, y no sé si es porque ya me he leído mucho misterio y visto muchas pelis, a mi no me sorprendió.
Es un excelente pasatiempos, un libro muy agradecido.
En general, Hércules Poirot en mi equipo.
We can't wait to watch the movie! There are moments of pure chemistry in this book between the characters, although things didn't end up entirely how we thought they would. Several subplots were a bit unbelievable, but overall a great audiobook for multiple weekend car trips.
