Death on the Nile

Classic whodunnit. While on a Nile steamer, detective Hercule Poirot investigates the death of an heiress who had stolen her best friend's fiance and crossed other passengers.

Agatha Christie's classic whodunnit. The great Belgian detective Hercule Poirot cannot believe how many enemies beautiful American heiress Linnett Ridgeway has made. When she is murdered on her honeymoon cruise, Poirot has only one problem - everybody on board could have done it, and everybody had a reason for doing it.
