"The murderer is with us - on the train now . . ." Just after midnight, the famous Orient Express is stopped in its tracks by a snowdrift. By morning, the millionaire Samuel Edward Ratchett lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. Without a shred of doubt, one of his fellow passengers is the murderer. Isolated by the storm, detective Hercule Poirot must find the killer among a dozen of the dead man's enemies, before the murderer decides to strike again.

Olvasói vélemények összefoglalója

Readers overwhelmingly praise Murder on the Orient Express as an absorbing, cleverly constructed mystery with a richly atmospheric setting. Many found it tense, twisty, and difficult to put down, while Hercule Poirot’s methodical intelligence and attention to detail were especially admired.

The short chapters and steadily unfolding investigation kept readers engaged, though some found the detailed reasoning or large cast slightly confusing at first. A few readers felt the pacing could be slow, and one found the book less appealing after encountering an adaptation, but these reservations were uncommon. Overall, it is strongly recommended for readers who enjoy classic detective fiction, intricate puzzles, psychological tension, and carefully developed mysteries.
