Evil Under the Sun

To the other guests at the Jolly Roger, the beautiful actress Arlena Marshall is the embodiment of evil, using her power to control others, seduce men, and destroy families. When her strangled body is found on the beach, Hercule Poirot, played by John Moffatt, finds a case with too many suspects. The cast includes Fiona Fullerton as Arlena, Robin Ellis as her husband, and Lindsey Fawcett as Linda, the sullen 16-year-old step-daughter with a penchant for voodoo. Moffatt's performance as the eccentric Belgian is good but lacks the energy and flamboyant flair of David Suchet's or Peter Ustinov's performances. S.E.S. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine
