Evil under the sun by Agatha Christie

Evil under the sun by Agatha Christie is a Hercule Poirot murder mystery. I am not usually keen on Hercule Poirot, but I enjoyed this one very much, thus I gave it 5 stars.

The blurb of the book is simple, a beautiful woman’s body is discovered strangled to death at a holiday resort. There are a few explanations with multiple suspects. I suspected someone, which seemed very guilty, but my assumption was not correct.

With murder mysteries I can’t say too much because I fear that I will give out spoilers. I liked the book and I recommend it.

About the author: Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller was born in Torquay, Devon, as the youngest of three. Before marrying and starting a family in London, she had served in a Devon hospital during the First World War, tending to troops coming back from the trenches. During the First World War, she worked at a hospital as a nurse; later working at a hospital pharmacy, a job that influenced her work, as many of the murders in her books are carried out with poison. During the Second World War, she worked as a pharmacy assistant at University College Hospital, London, acquiring a good knowledge of poisons which feature in many of her novels.
Her first novel, The Mysterious Affair at Styles, came out in 1920. During her first marriage, Agatha published six novels, a collection of short stories, and a number of short stories in magazines. In 1930, Christie married archaeologist Max Mallowan (Sir Max from 1968) after joining him in an archaeological dig. Their marriage was especially happy in the early years and remained so until Christie’s death in 1976.
