A beautifully designed box set of Agatha Christie's most beloved mysteries featuring legendary detective Hercule Poirot--Death on the Nile, Murder on the Orient Express, and The Murder of Roger Ackroyd--that will make the perfect gift.
Don't miss the major motion picture Murder on the Orient Express and its sequel Death on the Nile, directed by and starring Kenneth Branagh!
In Death on the Nile, the tranquility of a cruise along the Nile is shattered by the discovery that Linnet Ridgeway has been shot through the head. She was young, stylish, and beautiful. A girl who had everything . . . until she lost her life. Hercule Poirot recalls 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 under the searing heat of the Egyptian sun, nothing is ever quite what it seems.
In Murder on the Orient Express, the famous luxury train is stopped in its tracks by a snowdrift. By morning, the millionaire Samuel Edward Ratchett lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. Without a shred of doubt, one of his fellow passengers is the murderer. Isolated by the storm, detective Hercule Poirot must find the killer among a dozen of the dead man's enemies, before the murderer decides to strike again.
In The Murder of Roger Ackroyd, Roger Ackroyd is a man who knows too much. He knows that the woman he loves poisoned her brutal first husband. He suspects also that someone has been blackmailing her. Then, tragically, comes the news that she has taken her own life with an apparent drug overdose. However, the evening post brings Roger one last scrap of information, but before he can finish reading the letter, he is stabbed to death. Luckily one of Roger's friends and the newest resident to retire to this normally quiet village takes over--none other than Monsieur Hercule Poirot.
