Death on the Nile ( Poirot)
The girl who has everything. Including a bullet in the head A cruise down the Nile on a river steamer sounds like the perfect way to get away from it all - a luxurious retreat, miles from civilization. But the warm and tranquil Egyptian evening is thick with hot passions and cold malice. When everyone on board has a motive, Hercule Poirot must abandon the mysteries of ancient Egypt and focus on altogether deadlier matters . . .
Towards Zero
Superintendent Battle is called to investigate a murder at the home of an elderly widow at a clifftop seaside house in Devon. What is the connection between a failed suicide attempt, a wrongful accusation of theft against a schoolgirl, and the romantic life of a famous tennis player? To the casual observer, apparently nothing. But when a houseparty gathers at Gull's Point, the seaside home of an elderly widow, earlier events come to a dramatic head. It's all part of a carefully paid plan - for murder.
After the Funeral (Poirot)
After Richard Abernethie's funeral, his will is read out to his family. His sister, Cora, shocks everyone by saying 'He was murdered, wasn't he?' When Cora is murdered in her bed the very next day, her extraordinary remark suddenly seems very important. Every member of the Abernethie family has something to gain from both murders. Hercule Poirot arrives to solve the mystery.
