Roger Endicott

In the short story Christmas Adventure, Roger Endicott is a nephew of Miss Emily Endicott and a guest at a Christmas house party hosted by her which Poirot also attended. He was a younger son of his family with no prospects of inheriting. Although he was in love with Evelyn Haworth he did not say anything about it and instead went off to Australia. Later his brother died and Roger returned to England but by then Evelyn had become engaged to Oscar Levering.

Roger Endicott's role in the story is comparable to that of David Welwyn in the expanded story The Adventure of the Christmas Pudding.
