![]() ![]() I’ve always loved to travel and the mysteries I enjoyed the most were the ones where Hercule Poirot travels to some exotic and glamorous location such as Egypt in Death on the Nile and the Cornish Coast in Evil Under the Sun. After watching the series, I read three of the books: Lord Edgware Dies, Death on the Nile, and Evil Under the Sun. Netflix used to have the entire Poirot series, which is based on Christie’s Poirot novels. I discovered her work a few years ago during the year I took off from school because of illness. The work of Agatha Christie epitomizes the who-done-it genre. It is just the stuff for a cold and rainy evening spent curled up in a warm and comfortable spot with a cup of tea. A familiar formula but with enough twists and turns to keep things interesting. A prim and proper setting but with dark secrets hiding underneath the gentile facade. There’s something strangely cozy about an old-school murder mystery. ![]()
