About this listen

Agatha Christie’s most exotic murder mystery, read by Hercule Poirot himself, David Suchet.

The tranquillity 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 was ever quite what it seemed…

Critic reviews

“The construction is flawless” Daily Mail

“Must be read twice, once for enjoyment and once to see how the wheels go round.” The Times

“The main alibi is of the first brilliance … the descriptive work hits, as it were, the Nile on the head.” Observer

Great story but a lot of the voices were very irritating done in a grating voice. Colonel Race one of the worst.

But great story line! Some of the voices he puts on for the characters are painful to listen to but it didn't mar my enjoyment too much.

Not the best voice for narration

Narration was superb (of course considering it was David Suchet!) and the story is excellent. A book that will be a joy to read or listen to by anyone.

One of Chritie's Best

Story is excellent but seems to be a sound issue in chapter 6. You can hear everything it just sounds like you are in a tunnel

A few bugs

Amazing book, makes you think that they know that someone did it but then clears them of the crime

Very good book
