Background[]
Andrew Katchadourian is a suave and handsome lawyer who handles the estate and finances of his cousin and childhood friend, Linnet Ridgeway-Doyle, a wealthy English heiress. He accompanies Linnet and her husband, Simon Doyle, on their honeymoon cruise on the Nile River, where they are stalked by Simon's jilted ex-fiancee, Jacqueline de Bellefort. Andrew is also secretly embezzling money from Linnet's trust fund and has an affair with Rosalie Otterbourne, a fellow passenger and the daughter of a romance novelist.
He becomes one of the suspects in the murder of Linnet, who is shot in her cabin by an unknown assailant. He tries to cover up his involvement in the crime by planting evidence and lying to Hercule Poirot, the famous Belgian detective who happens to be on board. However, Poirot eventually uncovers the truth and reveals that Andrew was part of a complex conspiracy orchestrated by Simon and Jacqueline to kill Linnet and inherit her fortune.
