Evil Under The Sun is a detective novel by Agatha Christie, once again featuring the detective with an impressive moustache: Hercule Poirot!

Summary of the Book

On a luxurious resort for the rich and famous, Hercule Poirot believes that he can find some well-deserved rest. He alone knows how much rest he needs since murder seems to follow him everywhere. However, he might have picked the wrong resort if he wanted rest. A beautiful young bride is found on the beach, brutally strangled to death. The police soon arrive on the scene, and the resort is in uproar. Hercule Poirot’s little escape turns into a hunt for a killer, and despite wishing he could do otherwise, Poirot would never abandon a case.
