Agatha Christie's most famous murder mystery, reissued with a striking new cover designed to appeal to the latest generation of Agatha Christie fans and book lovers. Just after midnight, a snowdrift stops the Orient Express in its tracks. The luxurious train is surprisingly full for the time of the year, but by the morning it is one passenger fewer. An American tycoon lies dead in his compartment, stabbed a dozen times, his door locked from the inside. Isolated and with a killer in their midst, detective Hercule Poirot must identify the murderer -- in case he or she 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.
