Poirot shows mercy for two criminals, Tim and Jackie. He does not seem to be sympathetic to the other criminals he encounters—Richetti, Simon, and Pennington. Why does he seem to view the first two, but not the other three, as worthy of mercy?
How do you interpret the repeated references to Jackie’s expressions of suffering and appeal in the days leading up to Linnet’s murder? Is Jackie acting, is her anguish genuine, or is it both? What in the text supports your view?
Is there a coherent message about class—in particular, about whether the Fergusons or the Linnets of the world have justice on their side—in the novel? What passages from Death on the Nile support your view?
