Summary

John Moffatt stars as the famous Belgian detective in this BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of one of Christie's most popular novels.

Linnet Ridgeway has led a charmed life. Blessed with beauty, enormous wealth, and a devoted husband, she has everything anyone could wish for. But as the happy couple set out on an idyllic honeymoon cruise on the Nile, storm clouds are gathering....

Linnet's former friend, Jacqueline de Bellefort, follows her and Simon wherever they go, and Linnet senses she is in danger. At first, her fears seem groundless. But an attempt is made first on her life and then on her husband's. Eventually, the killer is successful, and Linnet is found horribly murdered. With an obvious suspect who cannot possibly have committed the crime, it is up to Hercule Poirot to probe the depths of a remarkable criminal mind and discover the dark secret behind what is only the first in a series of inexplicable deaths.

Agatha Christie at her finest!!

I absolutely love listening to these dramatisations. Especially if it's an Agatha Christie! She really did know how to put a good story together. Can listen to it time and again and still be captivated by it. John Moffatt was an excellent Poirot. Would happily recommend listening to it. Have seen the adaptations on TV but this was even better.

Superb performance

Superb performance by John Moffatt and, indeed, the whole cast. A classic brought to life in the best possible way. Hugely enjoyable and does not disappoint. Definitely a performance that I will revisit over again.
