Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot’s Egyptian vacation aboard a glamorous river steamer turns into a terrifying search for a murderer when a picture-perfect couple’s idyllic honeymoon is tragically cut short. Set against an epic landscape of sweeping desert vistas and the majestic Giza pyramids, this tale of unbridled passion and incapacitating jealousy features a cosmopolitan group of impeccably dressed travelers and enough wicked twists and turns to leave audiences guessing until the final, shocking denouement. Sequel to the fantastic mystery (and tea), Murder on the Orient Express.

Riley R. ★★★★★

The pacing never lulls—every twist on that river steamer kept me turning pages well past midnight. Poirot’s quiet observations are as sharp as ever, and the glamorous setting makes the murder feel even more sinister.

Isabella ★★★★☆

The pacing is spot-on, with Poirot’s deductions unfolding just slowly enough to keep you guessing until the final reveal. Only gripe is the middle section drags a bit during the couple’s backstory, but that ending makes it all worth it.

Violet Q. ★★★★☆

The setup on that river steamer is so claustrophobic and clever that I almost felt trapped with the passengers, though the middle stretch drags just a bit before the big reveal. Still, Poirot’s final explanation makes it all worth it.
