Death on the Nile: A Hercule Poirot Mystery (Hercule Poirot Mysteries, 17)

When Poirot booked a cruise to travel to Egypt, it was supposed to be a holiday, not a murder investigation, but things are about to change quickly when Linnet Ridgeway is found dead on the ship.

Miss Marple: The Complete Short Stories: A Miss Marple Collection (Miss Marple Mysteries)

If you like shorter stories by Agatha Christie, then we think this is a good buy. Miss Marple has a special gift that made her an exquisite detective, and it’s all because she has always been a keen observer.

This plot twist is one of our favorites. Roger, who seems to have it all, ends up being stabbed to death after having lost his fiancé to suicide and finding a strange letter. Who is guilty of killing Roger Ackroyd, and why did they do it?

Midwinter Murder: Fireside Tales from the Queen of Mystery

The harsh winter is not the only thing killing people in this series of short stories by Agatha Christie. If you enjoy mystery novels, we think this should be your pick.
