Death on the Nile is one of the few mysteries in which Agatha Christie’s series character Colonel Race appears and he does so quite late, arriving a 100 pages in. He is on a mission of his own, but he also becomes a useful second in command for when the murder of Linnet occurs. I thought it unusual that he turns up so late, as usually Poirot’s deputies are with him from the get-go. However, I wondered if Poirot had been with a holiday companion like Captain Hastings, then this might have hindered the plot by distracting us from the other boat passengers. With Poirot flying solo for quite some time this gives us more opportunity to get to grips with the cast of suspects and without the distortive or myopic viewpoint of someone like Hastings.
