Jacqueline and Simon fall into the web of suspicion since Linnet was murdered. The situation becomes more mysterious throughout the events of Death on the Nile, where the disappearance of expensive jewelry from Linnet's room is discovered. However, when considering that the motive for the murder was the theft of the pearls, the investigator sees that it would have been easy for the servant or any of the passengers to steal the jewelry, so why the murder? The investigator interrogates the maid named Louise Bourget, and during the questioning, she is killed.
