The labours of Hercules

Quoi de plus reposant et tranquille qu'une croisière sur le Nil ? Sauf quand on retrouve à bord le corps de Linnet Ridgeway tuée d'une balle dans la tête. Linnet avait tout pour elle, jeunesse, beauté, richesse... tout, jusqu'à ce qu'elle perde la vie !
Parmi les passagers, tous sous le choc d'une telle découverte, se trouve Hercule Poirot, le célèbre détective belge. Et voilà que justement il se rappelle avoir entendu un homme dire au sujet de la victime : « Je poserai bien mon pistolet contre sa tempe et j'appuierai sur la gâchette ! »
Mais cette déclaration, si elle n'est pas anodine, ne fait pas forcément de vous le coupable idéal.
