Agatha Christie: Evil Under the Sun Hints
I can't keep track of who's who.
That's always a challenge with Agatha Christie, to be sure; that's why she so often listed the cast of characters at the beginning of the book so the reader has a chance of keeping up. Here's a one-line description to help you keep the people separated in your mind. Many of these people wander around; for those that stay in one place, I'll note where they can be found.

Arlena Stuart, AKA Marshall -- Beautiful arrogant actress; Kenneth's wife, Linda's stepmother
Kenneth Marshall -- Arlena's husband, businessman
Linda Marshall -- Kenneth's daughter, Arlena's stepdaughter

Christine Redfern -- Patrick's wife, likes to sketch
Carrie Gardener -- Over-attentive wife who knits

Rosamund Darnley -- Fashion designer who lost a typewriter
Stephen Lane -- Defrocked minister with a tenuous grip on sanity
