Agatha Christie - Evil Under the Sun

[sib]

Christie's famous Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot retires to an English seaside hotel for a holiday, and soon realises that all is not well with the other guests. When Arlena Stuart, the alluring actress is found strangled in a remote cove the finger of suspicion points to her husband, (Arlena had been flirting quite blatantly with another guest.) But all is not as it seems, and it falls to Poirot to help the baffled police sort out the intricacies of the case.
A good page-turner, with the familiar all-the-suspects-in-a-room ending for Poirot to tie up the loose ends and expose the murderer.
7.5 out of 10 :book:

I love AC espcailly her Hercule Poirot stuff. This was a great film too, with Peter Ustinov and I think Joan Collins.

I've never read any AC, although I've listened to a few audio books (read by David Suchet) & I especially love Death on the Nile & Murder on the Orient Express.

I've always liked the films, and particularly like David Suchet's Poirot on the tele, but Evil Under the Sun is the first Agatha Christie I've actually read. I'll probably read more. :reading:

Far too short a thread for the best-selling mystery writer. This was a good book but then I heard she only wrote one bad one (Passage to Frankfurt) though I might not find it bad.
