In World War I, a young Hercule Poirot devises a strategy to help the Allied forces reclaim land against the Central Powers, however he fails to stop his captain’s death from a booby trap, which mutilates Poirot’s face. He is tended to by his lover and wife, nurse Katherine, who encourages him to grow his mustache to hide his scars. In 1937, Poirot enters a club where jazz singer Salome Otterbourne is performing. He witnesses Jacqueline “Jackie” de Bellefort introduce her fiancé Simon Doyle to her childhood friend, heiress Linnet Ridgeway, hoping that Linnet will offer him employment. Linnet hires Simon on the spot, and sparks fly between the two to Jackie’s discomfort.
Six weeks later, Poirot is vacationing in Egypt when he encounters his friend Bouc and is introduced to Bouc’s mother Euphemia, a renowned painter. Bouc also introduces Poirot to his friends Linnet and Simon, who have married and are celebrating their honeymoon. Others have joined the couple as they travel: Linnet’s longtime maid Louise Bourget; Salome; Salome’s niece and manager and Linnet’s old classmate Rosalie; Linnet’s communist-leaning godmother Marie Van Schuyler; Van Schuyler’s nurse Mrs. Bowers; Linnet’s cousin Andrew Katchadourian, who is in charge of Linnet’s will; and doctor Linus Windlesham, who had been engaged to Linnet before she left him for Simon.
