~ Death on the Nile

“Oh, I'm not afraid of death! What have I got to live for after all? I suppose you believe it's very wrong to kill a person who has injured you-even if they've taken away everything you had in the world.”

~ Death on the Nile

"“There's no reason why women shouldn't behave like rational beings," Simon asserted stolidly.
Poirot said drily: "Quite frequently they do. That is even more upsetting!”"

The riverboat Karnak has left port, and the journey has begun. With the arrival of Jacqueline de Bellefort, our cast of dubious characters is complete?  Perhaps not.  Our final key character arrives this week, and one of our guests has a close call at Abu Simbel.

SUNDAY, February 2nd at 1:30pm: TEA TIME, Agatha Christie's "Death on the Nile"


"It is always the facts that will not fit in that are significant."

~ Hercule Poirot, Death on the Nile


Death on the Nile is among Agatha Christie’s best-loved and most famous works - a sweeping mystery of love, jealously, and betrayal. Agatha Christie drew inspiration for this novel from her travels in Egypt, picking up geographical and historical details throughout her travels there.

Death on the Nile first published in the on 1 November 1937, and in the US by the following year. The UK edition retailed at seven shillings and sixpence (7/6) and the US edition at $2.00. The full length novel was preceded (1937) by a short story with the same title, but with Parker Pyne as the detective. The details of the short story's plot are substantially different, though the settings and some of the characters are very similar. The novel features the Belgian detective Hercule Poirot.

WEDNESDAY, May 6th at 7PM: More from CHRISTIE'S DETECTIVES

Betcha didn't know that Dame Agatha Christie wrote TWO "Death On the Nile" stories.  One in 1937 with Hercule Poirot - the version generally known best.  Yet earlier in 1934, she actually wrote the first "Death On the Nile" as a part of her Parker Pyne Investigates collection.

Tonight, Caledonia will continue with the short works of the Dame including this earlier version of "Death On the Nile" and another Parker Pyne adventure "The House at Shiraz".
