Death on the Nile

 


Shirley J.                      Adult Fiction Murder Mystery              Hercule Poirot, murder mysteries

Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie   288 pages

The older I get the more I appreciate Dame Agatha's wonderful stories and characters.   Hercule Poirot is excellent.   He is no Sherlock Holmes, but, he is quite observant if more mortal and prone to the occasional misses supposition.   Sherlock Holmes never makes mistakes, Poirot owns up to his.   No rest for the weary, though Poirot is on vacation he gets pulled into a murder investigation.   The story is a delicious one with characters of a 1920s feel.   Wonderful story.   Any one of middle school age on up who enjoys a juicy murder mystery with flamboyant characters will totally enjoy this story.   The dialogue is a treat.   I highly recommend this Agatha Christie title.  Loved it.
