Poirot is in Egypt taking a break, but his vacation doesn't pass without a mystery. When a scorned woman follows her former lover and his new wife everywhere they go, Poirot is worried for the woman's path. He sees that she's on a dangerous one, but she disregards his advice. The wife ends up dead, but it seems like the scorned woman and the husband both have the best motive but also the best alibi.
I do like the creativity and uniqueness that Christie put into her books. With the exception of some vocabulary that hasn't aged as well, these books are still worth reading. I'm going to have to wait and read more Poirot books until I forget the details. This was a good book, but my memory of the "episode" ruined it a bit for me. Still, Good Book!
