Overview

An international cast of suspects, all passengers on the crowded train, are speeding through the snowy European landscape when a bizarre and terrible murder brings them to an abrupt halt. One of their glittering number lies dead in his cabin, stabbed a mysterious twelve times. There is no lack of clues for Poirot - but which clue is real and which is a clever plant? Poirot realises that this time he is dealing with a murderer of enormous cunning and that in a case frought with fear and inconstencies only one thing is certain - the murderer is still aboard the train waiting to strike again.

  • Required school reading, wasn’t a fan of it

    Pickup C. - 4 years 2 months ago

    My daughter had to read it for school, and wasn’t a big fan of it. We are happy that Half Price Books came through with a good price!

  • Great Introduction to Hercule Poirot

    Noah H. - 5 years 9 months ago

    This book is a great introduction book to Agatha Christie’s Hercule Poirot character. Twists and turns in the case every which way but still is engaging to follow along with. #summerreading

  • A Popular Murder Mystery that both Challenges and Plays on Expectations in the Genre

    brandon h. - 5 years 10 months ago

    Agatha Christie's 'Murder on the Orient Express' is a classic mystery novel within the Hercule Poirot series that mystery readers, new or experienced, can fully enjoy! At the time, I had read a good collection of mystery novels, but never got a chance to jump into any of the Hercule Poirot book series. Hearing 'Orient Express' as arguably the best novel in the series, I had high hopes, but found that all expectations were heavily surpassed! The characters are numerous, but all have a purpose in the mystery surrounding the murder due to the setting, which allows the progressing story to be focused and tight while also providing a tense environmental circumstance. As well as that, the resolving truth in the circumstances surrounding the mystery is no doubt my favorite reveal I've seen, not just because it is original, but because it manages to do so in a way that makes me question why I had never considered it before in any murder mystery tale! So if you'd like to read a new mystery novel that can surprise you or are looking to enter into the genre in general, 'Murder on the Orient Express' is a great starting point and a worthwhile reread even after reading other stories from the Poirot series!
