A gruesome murder takes place on a luxurious cruise on the Nile. Agatha Christie takes us into a world of mystery, intrigue and deadly riddles in her classic "Murder on the Nile". The wealthy heiress Linnet Ridgeway has everything one could wish for: Beauty, wealth and a charming fiancé. But when she embarks on a honeymoon with her newlywed husband, Simon Doyle, she has no idea that her life is in danger. Aboard the steamship Karnak, we meet a host of fascinating characters: the mysterious Egyptologist Dr. Bessner, the enigmatic writer Salome Otterbourne, the obscure lawyer Andrew Pennington, and many others. Each of them seems to have a motive to get Linnet out of the way. When Linnet is found dead in her cabin one evening, confusion reigns. Who is the murderer? Was it the jealous ex-fiancé who feels betrayed? Or is someone else entirely behind the crime? The famous Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is also on board and takes up the investigation. With his sharp mind and incomparable powers of observation, he gradually unravels the web of lies and deception that surrounds the passengers.
