But things are about to get a whole lot uglier. While aboard a steamer travelling the Nile, Poirot finds himself pulled into a murder mystery.

Aboard the steamer are a host of suspects and witnesses. It’s up to Poirot to question them and find out who is the killer. But it isn’t the last of the bloodshed on what should have been a leisurely cruise on the Nile.

He’ll be stepping into the role of Poirot again.
