Agatha Christie: Evil Under the Sun Hints
How do I help Linda clean the guillemot?
1 of 13: When you talk to Linda at Sanctuary Cove, she'll tell you there's an oil-covered seabird that needs cleaning. Poor thing! Well, the first thing you need to do is catch it, and for that you'll need something like a fish net.
2 of 13: Oddly, there isn't one in this seaside resort. How about that shawl Mrs. Gardener is always working on?
3 of 13: Once you have the shawl, use it on the bird to watch Poirot catch it, and Linda will take it to Poirot's bathroom to start the cleaning process. But how? This is delicate work; if you try to just scrub at it, you could injure it worse than the oil does. You need some expert help here.
4 of 13: There aren't any seabird laundry experts around. Where else might you find a useful reference?
5 of 13: Go to Leathercombe to the lending library and ask for a book about birds, then examine it in inventory to see what it says. Note that Poirot won't ask about bird books until you've actually caught the bird, by the way.
