In Death of the Nile by Agatha Christie, Cornelia Robson is first seen in an apartment with her mother in New York. She is the cousin of Miss Van Schuyler. Miss Van Schuyler is very wealthy and a financially successful person. She is inviting Cornelia to travel with her to Europe or more specifically Egypt. Cornelia also seems to have a strong relationship with her mother. Her mother is very grateful that Miss Van Schuyler is taking her on this trip, and expresses sadness that she isn’t able to take her places. Though secretly Cornelia doesn’t seem very happy about going. There seems to be some tension between the cousins.
Good answer. Yes, tension.
